Dr. Kimber Shelton (Class of 2002), a standout in track and field and volleyball, and Eric Moser  (Class of 1997), a basketball three-point shooter extraordinaire, were honored in a ceremony that helped cap off Homecoming Weekend.

“The Roberts Wesleyan University Athletics Hall of Fame recognizes student-athletes, coaches and contributors who have achieved tremendous success and/or have made significant contributions to the Raiders and Redhawks Athletic Department and beyond,” Executive Director of Athletics Bob Segave said. “Both Kimber and Eric are so deserving of this honor and it is my distinct pleasure to welcome them into this exclusive club.”
