Summary
Gonzaga basketball’s golden era owes much to the unsung legend Dan Fitzgerald, whose 15-year tenure laid the groundwork for today’s dominance — including the program’s first NCAA Tournament in 1995 and mentoring future stars Mark Few and Dan Monson. Now, Fitzgerald joins Hall of Fame classmate Jeff Brown, the unstoppable center who led the WCC in scoring and earned Player of the Year honors, as Spokane celebrates their legacy at Hooptown USA Courts on June 24th — kicking off Hoopfest weekend. This year’s class also honors Emily Westerberg, Kim Eng, and the Ferris boys team (2006–2008), marking the fifth Hall of Fame induction class to recognize the Inland Northwest’s basketball pioneers.
