The 1976 Southwest Conference men’s basketball Player of the Year title belongs to Terrell. He is still after 36 years the only Mustang to average double-double for three seasons.

Two coaches will be inducted this year into the Hall of Fame. McMillion, known on campus as “Coach Mac” spent close to 30 years working with SMU swimming.

During his tenure, Coach Mac and the Mustangs appeared in eight consecutive Southwest Conference Championships. Adding to his extensive numbers, Coach Mac coached 78 All-Americans, 15 NCAA Champions, four Olympic medalists and was named Southwest Conference Coach of the Year four times.

From 1947 to 1967 men’s basketball was under the direction of Coach Hayes. He passed in 1973 after leading his teams to eight Southwest Conference titles and six NCAA tournament appearances including the 1956 Final Four.

The lone woman on the 2012 inductee list is Kennedy who was a standout basketball player from 1997-2000. The three-time All-WAC first team selection was the 2000 WAC Player of the Year. Kennedy finished her career at SMU as the all-time leader in scoring, rebounding, blocked shots and field goal percentage.
