Standing in the Hall of FameStonehill welcomed the Class of 2018 into its Athletic Hall of Fame in a ceremony held on campus Friday night. Among the six inductees was football standout Mike McLucas '95, one of five 2,000-yard rushers in program history. McLucas is the first in Stonehill history to receive the New England Football Writers Gold Helmet Award after his program-record 250-yard performance against Nichols in 1994, scoring three touchdowns. He still ranks fourth in program history with his 2,160 career rushing yards, while his 15 rushing touchdowns are good for fifth all-time. Joining McLucas in the Stonehill Hall of Fame last night were: Fran Dillon '70 (contributor), Jessica Batcha '99 (volleyball), Dana DeIngenis '07 (women's cross country/track & field), Daniella Granato '08 (women's tennis) and Erin Vrysen '00 (women's soccer). End Zone Crew Juniors Andrew Jamiel (Yarmouth, Mass.) and Brian Kearns, Jr. (North Arlington, N.J.) both continue to move up Stonehill scoring charts. Jamiel ranks second all-time in program history with his 23 career touchdown receptions - just two shy of Nate Robitaille '15's career record of 25. Kearns, Jr. ranks second on the program's career rushing touchdown mark with 20 - four shy of Eddie Vachon '11's career mark of 24 rushing touchdowns. Jamiel (23) and Kearns, Jr. (22) rank fifth and seventh, respectively, for career touchdowns scored in program history, a record held by Vachon (34).
