The Minnesota College Athletic Conference (MCAC), formerly the Minnesota Community College Conference (MCCC), has a proud and time-honored history, dating back to the first season in 1966.  Throughout this time, the conference membership has sought to recognize and highlight student-athletes, coaches, administrators, media members and those in the community which have contributed to the success of the organization.  

 

The members of the Minnesota College Athletic Conference Hall-of-Fame are available below; please select an individual college logo for inductees at that school. 

 

In addition to current MCAC members, colleges which do not currently sponsor athletics at the NJCAA intercollegiate level but which have had members inducted to the MCAC Hall-of-Fame are available.   Those inductees are included in the 'Former Members & Special Mention Section' at the bottom of this page. 

 

Help the MCAC update our Hall of Fame list:

Please help us update our records for individuals who have been elected into the MCCC or MCAC Hall of Fame.  Over the several decades in which the Conference has been serving two-year colleges, changes in the office location and leadership have created some gaps in Hall of Fame record keeping and recognition. If you observe an omission or errors,  please contact: Kurt.Kohler@rctc.edu to help us continue to improve our Hall of Fame.

To nominate someone new to the Minnesota College Athletic Conference Hall of Fame, please contact Kurt Kohler, Executive Director of the Minnesota College Athletic Conference.  Kurt is the chair of the MCAC Hall of Fame Committee and can be reached at: kurt.kohler@rctc.edu
