CSU Hall of Fame
In the Summer of 1994, the concept of an Athletic Hall of Fame for Columbus College was hatched over lunch at a Rotary Club meeting. It was February of 1995 when Cecil Darby, Earl Gibson, Herbert Greene, Jimmy Griggs and John Roper met at a McDonald's store in Phenix City, Al., to discuss setting a deadline on the dream to create what became the Columbus State University Athletic Hall of Fame. |
