Adrian, Mich. – Siena Heights University will induct three former athletes, one administrator and one team into its Athletic Hall of Fame. The 2018 class includes Jemile Green, LeeAnn Fleming, Kelly Tubbs Good, Bill Blackerby and the 1998 men's cross country team.
Green '10 played from 1988-93 and finished with 1,366 career points, good for 12th on the all-time list. He was also sixth in career rebounds (750) and third in career blocks (133) for the Saints. He was an honorable mention NAIA All-American in 1991-92 as well as the team MVP and first team NAIA All-District 23. He also set single-season records in free throws made (166) and attempted (246) in 1991-92.
Fleming '07 was a six-time NAIA All-American in the women's track and field throwing events, including a four-time indoor All-American in the weight throw and a two-time outdoor All-American in the hammer throw. She held various program records in several throwing events and was one of the most decorated throwers in Saints history.
Tubbs Good '05 was the Wolverine-Hoosier Athletic Conference Player of the Year in 2004 and a two-time first team all-conference defender. She is the career leader in games played with 85 and was named an honorable mention NAIA All-American in 2004. She finished with eight goals and 12 assists, and the Saints won two conference titles and made two national tournament appearances during her career.
Blackerby, who will be inducted in the meritorious service category, was a longtime SHU business faculty member who served as the Wolverine-Hoosier Athletic Conference's faculty athletic representative for nearly two decades. He also was a representative on the WHAC Executive Committee from 1998-2016 and also served as WHAC treasurer for many years. He was very instrumental in helping the conference make a transition to a full-time commissioner and served on the conference Eligibility Committee for many years as well as many ad hoc committees, including the SHU Athletic Hall of Fame Committee. He was a key part of the SHU Football Task Force in 2010.
The 1998 men's cross country team took three of the top five places in the Wolverine-Hoosier Athletic Conference championships to claim the title. Led by Hall-of-Famer Matt Miller and NAIA All-American Kevin Schultz, the Saints went on to finish eighth at the NAIA National Championships, tying for the best showing in program history.
The induction ceremony and banquet will be Oct. 5 in Benincasa Hall during 2018 Homecoming Weekend.
