GOLDEN, Colo. - Colorado School of Mines welcomed the four newest inductees to the Mines Athletics Hall of Fame Saturday night as Anna Evans, Mark Husted, Mack McLain, and Bob Stitt were honored at Lockridge Arena.
The quartet was honored during the annual Mines Auction and Hall of Fame event, which raised funds to benefit Oredigger student-athletes.
Evans was the catalyst behind the transformation of Mines women's soccer into a national power, earning three all-America and two Academic All-America honors in her career. She scored 55 goals and 23 assists as an Oredigger and led Mines to four RMAC titles - three tournament and one regular-season - from 2011 to 2013.

He was a six-time all-American on the track and three-time Academic All-America.
