FORT WORTH, TX – Texas Wesleyan University inducted five new members into the Texas Wesleyan Athletic Hall of Fame last week. These five athletes and coaches paved the way for Texas Wesleyan Athletics and have helped build the foundation for even bigger and better things moving forward.

The members inducted were:

Brad Bass (1987-1995) was the head baseball coach for Texas Wesleyan Baseball. He won 258 games as the Rams coach and helped build the program to get where it is today. He produced several All-Americans and All-Conference players to establish Texas Wesleyan as an elite program in the conference.

Kenny Kenvin (1990-1994) was one of the top athletes in the Men's Basketball program, he currently holds the record for most points in a career at Texas Wesleyan, among many other records as well. Kenvin was an All-American honorable mention as well as a four-time All-Conference player for the Rams.

Kevin Millikan (1994-) is the current head coach for the Texas Wesleyan Women's Golf program. He is in his 13^th year as the women's golf coach, and his 27^th year of service to the university. Millikan was a player for four years at the University and then was a part of the coaching staff for the men's golf team for several years. He also served as the Athletic Director for several years, helping the Rams become a powerhouse in the Red River Athletic Conference.

Bernadine Neyland Rhin (1977-1981) was one of the top athletes in the Texas Wesleyan Women's Basketball program. Neyland is the current leader in points in not only the women's basketball program, but in the school's history. She is the current holder of 16 records in the women's basketball record book. She was a member of the 1978-79 team that won the state championship where she played a pivotal role in leading the team to great success.

Alex Schies (2014-2018) was a member of the Texas Wesleyan Women's Golf program. As the program started in 2012, she was one of the first members to be a part of it and a key to the success the program has now. She was a four-time SAC Player of the Year and helped lead the Rams to four consecutive NAIA National Tournaments. Schies is also the only player in program history to be named to the first-team NAIA All-American team four years in a row.

These members will be remembered for a long time, for not only their success on the field or court, but the impact they had on these programs.

Athletic Director Ricky Dotson stated "We are extremely proud of the success of our athletic department at Texas Wesleyan.  While our current teams continue the winning traditions, the Athletic Hall of Fame ceremony allows our TXWES community to honor those who came before us and established the standards we strive for today.  This year's class is another example of this.  These inductees are the best of the best and serve as an example our athletes can follow in competition and in life."
