In over 40 years, Warner University has had a rich history of athletic programs. This is a time to celebrate to recognize those individuals who have left an everlasting legacy of Christian principles and sportsmanship here at Warner.

Rosie Carr – Women's Volleyball Coach 1977-1981
Bob Coates – Meritorious Service to Sports Information and Baseball
A.L. "Buck" Dawson – Cross Country Coach 1991-1994

The 2017 class joins 21 others who have been selected into the Warner University Sports Hall of Fame since its inception in 2013.

We are excited about this year's class and look forward to honoring them."
