The latest Big 5 Hall of Fame class, announced Monday, includes great players from each of the Big 5 schools, two of the greatest coaches in women’s basketball history, and a man who put together a league that was foundational for so many Big 5 players.

The 2022 class is headlined by Sonny Hill and current U.S. Olympic women’s head coach Cheryl Reeve, a La Salle graduate, plus retired Villanova women’s coach Harry Perretta.

Villanova great Allan Ray is another honoree, joining Penn’s Bruce Lefkowitz, Ahmad Nivins of St. Joseph’s, and Marty Stahurski of Temple.

The awards banquet that also will include the 2021-22 all-Big 5 team being honored will take place at the Palestra on April 11.

Doors will open at 6 p.m., with the program scheduled to begin at 7 p.m. This event is open to the public, tickets $15 in advance or $20 at the door.
