Below are links to a number of Hall of Fame or Award lists. Although the two clubs are now merged into a single Western Mustangs Athletic Alumni, the ‘W’ Club and the Women’s Athletic Alumni (WAA) have long maintained separate lists of excellent players or coaches at Western, with the ‘W’ Club inducting members into their Hall of Fame and the WAA handing out the Elfrida Berzins award. Many of the sports at Western also keep lists of their talented alumni, a large number of which can be found in the links below.
