ROCK HILL, S.C. (AP) -- Former basketball coach Gregg Marshall and longtime university president Anthony DiGiorgio will be among seven people to be inducted into the Winthrop Athletics Hall of Fame.

Marshall led the Eagles to seven NCAA tournament appearances in nine seasons as head coach. He's currently the head coach at Wichita State.

DiGiorgio is retiring after 24 years as president, where he served two terms on the NCAA board of directors and two terms as president of the Big South Conference.

The other five named to the hall are Vali Arnason, men's soccer; Darrlyn Alexander, softball; Jason Colson, baseball; Stephanie Morris, women's basketball; and Lisa Mullins, volleyball.

Induction ceremonies are scheduled for April 27.
