Mike Price led the Cougars to five bowl games, two Rose Bowls, and
three 10-win seasons during his 14 year career as head football coach
at Washington State. And this fall, the University is going to induct
the two time Pac-10 coach of the year into their athletic Hall of
Fame.
Price headlines a group of seven members that will be inducted
into the Hall of Fame during half time of the Washington State vs.
Idaho football game on September 17th. He'll be joined by a man who
played quarterback for him during four of his most successful years
at the helm.
Jason Gesser set 15 WSU records by the time he graduated in 2002.
He led the Cougs to one Rose Bowl and back to back 10-win seasons in
2001 and 2002 and was voted first team All-American by College
Football News in 2002. He was also the face of the best Heisman
trophy campaign in the history of Heisman trophy campaigns.
Joining these two football all stars will be five more Cougar all
stars from all backgrounds. These names include: record breaking
baseball star (1970-74) Marv Chamberlain, three time All-American
swimmer (1996-2000) Erin Eldridge, 10 year MLB veteran and former
college basketball player (1992-96) Mark Hendrickson, three time
All-American track star (1988-93) Jennifer Robertson, and longtime
WSU administrator (1979-2007), and name sake of Saneholtz volleyball
court Marcia Saneholtz.
