MACON, Ga. – Mercer Athletics announced Wednesday this year's induction class of the Mercer Athletic Hall of Fame, as voted on by current members of the Hall of Fame.
Â
Michael Mimbs (Baseball, 1988-90), Mark Mimbs (Baseball, 1988-90), Kacie Hudson (Women's Soccer, 2007-10) and Rick Cameron (Voice of the Bears, 2005-Pres.) will be honored as the Mercer Athletic Hall of Fame Class of 2019.
Â
The four inductees will be enshrined during the Fifth Annual Alumni Awards Reception & Dinner on November 8 at 6 p.m. as a part of the school's Homecoming Week activities. For more information or to register for the event, CLICK HERE.
Â
Michael Mimbs starred on the mound for Mercer's baseball program alongside his brother, Mark, before being drafted by the Los Angeles Dodgers in the 24th round of the 1990 MLB Draft. The left-hander struck out 126 batters and tossed seven complete games during the 1990 season – the 126 strikeouts are the second most in a single season in program history.
Â
Mark Mimbs played alongside his brother, Michael, before he was drafted by the Los Angeles Dodgers in the 25th round of the 1990 MLB Draft. He handled a heavy load of innings in the 1990 season, tossing eight complete games, which rank among Mercer's single-season leaders. The two brothers combined to be one of the ASUN's most formidable duos.
Â
Kacie Hudson was a three-time All-ASUN First Team selection and earned four total all-conference selections during her time at Mercer. In addition to an All-Freshman Team selection, Hudson also earned two spots on the ASUN All-Tournament Team in 2007 and 2010. Throughout her career, Hudson tallied nine game-winning goals, which rank fourth in program history. She ranks among program career leaders in total goals with 19. She helped lead Mercer to a 2010 ASUN Tournament title and a NCAA Tournament berth.
Â
Rick Cameron is in his 15th year of calling radio play-by-play as the "Voice of the Bears" in the 2019-20 academic year, with 700 Mercer games under his belt. Included on his resume are radio broadcasts for Mercer's football, men's basketball, women's basketball, baseball and softball programs. He has been a pivotal voice in some of Mercer's most historic athletics moments during those 15 years, including the university's return to the football gridiron in 2013 and the men's basketball team's historic upset of Duke in the 2014 NCAA Tournament.
Â
The Mercer Athletic Hall of Fame originated in 1971 with its inaugural class. Since its inception, 187 individuals have been inducted into the Mercer Athletic Hall of Fame. For a full list of Mercer Athletic Hall of Fame members, CLICK HERE.
