SCIAC Distinguished Service Award
In 1985, the Southern California Intercollegiate Athletic Conference created the Distinguished Service Award to recognize an individual who has prompted collegiate athletics and the concept of the student-athlete as a coach, administrator or long term member of the conference and/or otherwise been involved with servicing college athletics on campus. The award may be given to nominees who have retired or resigned from athletics administration and who have rendered such meritorious service to intercollegiate athletics as may seem sufficient to entitle them to this honor.
