UCLA Athletics Hall of Fame

The UCLA Athletics Hall of Fame enters its 33rd year of its existence and its 16th in a new location facing Westwood Plaza. The current Hall of Fame, double the size of its predecessor, opened in July of 2001.

The first floor in the east wing of the J.D. Morgan Athletics Center features the 8,000-square foot Athletics Hall of Fame and serves as the main entrance to the Department of Intercollegiate Athletics.

The Hall of Fame features the "John Wooden - The Den" exhibit, an exact replica of the late Coach's den; state-of-the-art interactive displays; a mini-theater where Bruin video clips and highlights re-create past championship moments; a timeline of important U.S., California and UCLA dates showing how sports weave into the great moments in history; a collection of Bruin memorabilia and much more.

UCLA athletic teams have won a national-best 112 NCAA team championships, and each of those first-place trophies grace the Hall of Champions. Other exhibits include photos of UCLA's first-team All-Americans in football and basketball, Gary Beban's Heisman Trophy, Wooden Awards won by Marques Johnson and Ed O'Bannon and a special display highlighting all of UCLA's Honda and Broderick Cup winners. Displays on UCLA's football bowl victories, the Bruins' NCAA basketball tradition and UCLA's Olympic Games medal winners are featured in the new Hall of Fame.

Each of UCLA's sports has its own individual display area within the Hall of Fame. In addition, there are displays honoring Jackie Robinson, UCLA's Academic All-Americans and women in sports. There are also sample lockers of former Bruin greats in various sports.

In connection with the building, which originally opened in November of 1983, UCLA established a Hall of Fame with 25 charter members representing a cross-section of the school's athletic history.
