Kingsville - The annual Texas A&M-Kingsville Athletics Hall of Fame ceremony for the class of 2026 will now commence on Oct. 2 Javelina Athletics announced on Monday.

Nominations for the 2026 Hall of Fame class have opened up to the public via an online form, with the deadline being set to May 13th. The 2026 Hall of Fame ceremony will take place inside the Student Union Building Ballroom.

The Javelina Hall of Fame is established to pay tribute and give recognition to former athletes, coaches and others making exceptional contributions and/or meritorious service to the advancement of Texas A&M-Kingsville. 

The inaugural Javelina Hall of Fame was enshrined in 1972, long before many of the other colleges and universities had initiated such an honors court. Some of these newer Halls of Fame have been established using the Javelina Hall of Fame as a model.
