Athletics Hall of Fame
Dennis Walker ‘74 was a two-time lacrosse All-American for the Dutchmen, a remarkable achievement for a student who never played the sport in high school. His amazing senior season of 1974 featured 67 goals, which led all three NCAA divisions and earned him “Faces in the Crowd” recognition in Sports Illustrated. Walker was named the Jaffe Award recipient for the outstanding male athlete in 1974. During his career, Dennis helped lead Union to victories over many lacrosse powers, including Division I Syracuse. He ended his career as the all-time leading scorer in Union men’s lacrosse history, and ranked second all-time 32 years later.
