UCLA’s Athletic Hall of Fame

Lew Alcindor Bill Walton John Wooden Marques Johnson Dave Meyers Kiki Vandeweghe David Greenwood

The UCLA Athletics Hall of Fame enters its 38th year of existence, its 20th year located in its current configuration in the J.D. Morgan Center. The current Hall of Fame is more than double the size than its predecessor, which opened in July 2001. The first floor in the Center’s east wing features the 8,000-square foot Athletics Hall of Fame and serves as the main entrance to the Department of Intercollegiate Athletics. The Hall of Fame features state-of-the-art interactive displays, a mini-theater where video clips and highlights re-create past championship moments, a timeline of important dates showing how sports weave into great moments in history and a collection of Bruin memorabilia.

UCLA athletic teams have won 119 NCAA team championships and each of those first-place trophies grace the Hall of Champions. Other exhibits include photos of firstteam All-Americans in football and men’s basketball, Gary Beban’s Heisman Trophy, Wooden Awards won by Marques Johnson and Ed O’Bannon and a special display highlighting UCLA’s Honda and Broderick Cup winners. Displays on UCLA’s football bowl victories, the school’s men’s basketball tradition and UCLA’s Olympic Games medal winners are featured in the Hall of Fame. Each of UCLA’s sports has its own display area in the Hall of Fame. The cases include displays honoring Jackie Robinson, UCLA’s Academic All-Americans and women in sports. There are also sample lockers of former Bruin greats in various sports. In connection with the building, which originally opened in November 1983, UCLA established a Hall of Fame with 25 charter members representing a cross-section of the school’s athletic history.

CHARTER MEMBERS

The men’s basketball program had seven inductees as “charter members” of the Hall of Fame when it began in 1984. Those charter members include Lew Alcindor (now known as Kareem Abdul-Jabbar), Gail Goodrich, Walt Hazzard, Jackie Robinson, Bill Walton, Keith Wilkes (now Jamaal Wilkes) and former head coach John Wooden.

Alcindor excelled on the varsity team under Coach Wooden from 1967-69, helping UCLA win NCAA Championships all three seasons. His jersey number (33) was retired in Pauley Pavilion during a halftime ceremony on Feb. 3, 1990. During his three varsity seasons, he helped UCLA compile an 88-2 overall record. He earned consensus All-America honors three times and became the only player to ever be selected “Most Outstanding Player” of the Final Four three times. He was a three-time college player of the year and ranks first in career scoring average at UCLA (26.4 points per game). Goodrich was a three-year standout under Coach Wooden from 1963-65, helping UCLA secure its first two NCAA Championships on the hardwood (1964, 1965). He served as a co-captain his senior season with Keith Erickson, earning All-America acclaim after having averaged 24.8 points per game (1965). In the 1965 NCAA title contest, Goodrich scored a then-championship game record 42 points to lead No. 2 UCLA past No. 1 Michigan, 87-66. He had his jersey number (25) retired at UCLA on Dec. 18, 2004. Hazzard, a 6-foot-2 guard from Philadelphia, Pa., was a threeyear starter on UCLA’s varsity squad under Coach Wooden (1962-64). He twice earned All-America honors (1963, 1964) and led the Bruins to their first NCAA Championship as a senior in 1964 (going 30-0 for the first time). Hazzard later served as the program’s head coach from 1985-88, leading the Bruins’ 1985 squad to the NIT title. Robinson was a four-sport letterwinner at UCLA, playing for the football, basketball, track & field and baseball teams. He attended UCLA from 1939-41 and played on the basketball team from in 1939-40 and 1940-41. Robinson wore number 18 as a basketball player, but his iconic number 42 with the Brooklyn Dodgers has been retired across all sports at UCLA. As a basketball player, he twice led the Southern Division of the Pacific Coast Conference in scoring, logging 12.4 points per game in 1940 and 11.1 points per game in 1941. Walton established himself as one of the game’s all-time greatest frontcourt players, starring on UCLA’s varsity team from 1972-74. Walton led UCLA to a pair of NCAA Championships in 1972 and 1973 under Coach Wooden. During his three years on the varsity team, Walton helped UCLA compile an overall record of 86-4. His teams won their first 73 consecutive games, as UCLA had registered an impressive 88-game winning streak. Walton’s jersey number (32) was retired during a halftime ceremony on Feb. 3, 1990. Wilkes was a three-year standout on the varsity team from 1972-74, helping UCLA capture NCAA titles in 1972 and 1973. Teaming alongside Walton in the frontcourt, Wilkes helped the Bruins compile an 86-4 record during his three seasons. He played a central role in UCLA winning 88 consecutive contests and was a three-time first-team All-America selection. Wilkes’ jersey number (52) was retired during a halftime ceremony in Pauley Pavilion on Jan. 17, 2013. Coach Wooden served as UCLA’s head coach for 27 seasons, guiding the Bruins to NCAA titles in 10 of his final 12 seasons. He retired at the end of the 1974-75 season, having amassed an all-time head coaching record of 885203. Through 27 seasons at UCLA, he went 620-147 while securing far more accolades than any other coach at any other university. He led the Bruins to perfect 30-0 records in 1964, 1967, 1972 and 1973.
