Homecoming Hall of Fame 2026


Join us back at Brandeis for the best weekend of the year! Homecoming and Hall of Fame 2026 is Saturday, October 3! Our celebration of Brandeis Athletics will feature men's and women's soccer matches, a brunch-style Hall of Fame Induction Ceremony, team alumni events, beer garden, tailgate (with bounce house and kid-friendly activities!), gear sale and much more.

We encourage you to check back in April for the announcement of our newest class of Joseph M. Linsey Athletics Hall of Famers, who will be inducted on campus at Homecoming next year. Brandeis Athletics is thrilled to honor a group of individuals or teams as our next hall of fame class. Still need to make a nomination? Click the button below to make your submission!

Make a Future Hall of Fame Nomination

We are accepting nominations for the 2026 Hall of Fame class through December 2025! Nominate a classmate, teammate, friend, or any former student-athlete who you think deserves their spot in Brandeis Athletics history for consideration in 2026. Nominations should be made by the end of the current calendar year for consideration for induction next year. Any nominations made after the new year will be considered for 2027.

Since 1993, the Joseph M. Linsey Athletic Hall of Fame has honored the top student-athletes, coaches and department supporters in Brandeis history. Inductees are decided upon each year in the spring, then formally inducted during Homecoming weekend in the fall.

Both individuals and teams are eligible for induction into the Joseph M. Linsey Hall of Fame. Individuals are eligible five years after graduation (or their last year of competition), and teams are eligible five years after the teams most notable achievement. Unless an individual is being inducted as a contributor, nominees must be former Varsity student-athletes and should be chosen on the basis of playing ability, character, and impact on Brandeis Athletics and campus community. Former coaches or non-Varsity athletes who have contributed outstanding services, support, or are otherwise distinctive to the department may be inducted as a contributor.

All nominations are reviewed by the Hall of Fame Nomination Committee each year in late winter/early spring. Please note that if you have already made a nomination in a previous year, you do not need to resubmit the same nomination. All nominations from previous years will continue to be considered for induction annually.
