GREG MEYER Men's Track and Field (1973-77)

A native of Grand Rapids, Mich., Meyer blazed a path as a cross country and track and field state high school champion. He honed his running talents from 1973-77 at the University of Michigan. As a Wolverine, Meyer was a three-time cross country All-American (1974-76) and three-time All-Big Ten selection (1974-76) as well as a 1976 track and field All-American.

Meyer was an Olympic Trials competitor in 1980, though the Moscow Games were later boycotted by the United States. He continued his training with unflagging determination. His greatest accomplishment came in 1983 when he conquered more than 10,000 competitors to win the Boston Marathon -- the last American to do so. His time of 2:09.00 missed the world record by 47 seconds and the course record by nine seconds at the time of the race. Meyer continued his service to his alma mater as a development officer and now holds the position of Associate Vice President for Institutional Advancement at Aquinas College in Grand Rapids, Mich.

GLEN RICE Men's Basketball (1985-89)

On Feb. 20, 2005, the University of Michigan honored Rice's jersey, No. 41, raising it to the rafters of Crisler Arena. It is a lasting tribute to his legendary basketball achievements. A native of Flint, Mich., Rice is the most prolific scorer in Michigan history with 2,442 career points. He led the Wolverines to the 1989 NCAA championship while setting a tournament record with 184 points in six games, a mark that still stands. He was named the tournament's Most Outstanding Player and an All-American. Rice won Big Ten Conference scoring titles and All-Big Ten accolades in 1988 and '89. He ranks second all-time in the Big Ten for field goals made in a season (363, 1988-89) and is third all-time in career points (2,442), career field goals (1,002) and career three-point field goal percentage (.480, 135-281). After his playing days in Ann Arbor, Rice was selected by the Miami Heat as the fourth overall pick in the 1989 NBA Draft and was named to the All-NBA Rookie second team. He was the Heat's all-time leading scorer with 9,248 points in six seasons. With the Charlotte Hornets franchise (1995-98), he earned three NBA All-Star team selections and the All-Star Game MVP award in 1997. Moving to the Los Angeles Lakers in 1998, Rice was instrumental in winning the 2000 NBA championship. He closed his 15-year NBA career with the Los Angeles Clippers in 2004. Famed for his pinpoint shooting accuracy, Rice ranks fifth in NBA history with 1,559 career three-point field goals. He continues to promote the sport he loves and has the pleasure of watching his son, Glen Rice Jr., take to the court for Georgia Tech.

BARBARA WEINSTEIN (McGRATH) Women's Diving (1978-80)

A native of Cincinnati, Ohio, Weinstein McGrath transferred to the University of Michigan for the 1978-79 season. Competing under the banner of the Association of Intercollegiate Athletics for Women (AIAW) and the guidance of her diving coach, Dick Kimball, Weinstein McGrath put Michigan diving in the headlines. Under the aegis of U.S. Diving, she was a three-time 10-meter platform national champion in 1976, '79 and '80, and a four-year All-American. In 1977, she entered the world stage at the World University Games in Sofia, Bulgaria, earning a bronze medal on the platform. Representing the United States at the 1979 Pan American Games on the platform, she vanquished the competition, winning a gold medal. She earned a spot on the 1980 United States Olympic team but was prevented from representing her country with the boycott of the Moscow Games. As part of the 1980 Olympic team, she was awarded the Congressional Gold Medal, the highest civilian honor bestowed by the United States Congress. Undaunted by hard work in her sport or in the classroom, she graduated from Michigan with Phi Beta Kappa distinction in 1980. Also in 1980, she was the inaugural inductee for ADARA, the female honor society recognizing leadership and achievement campus-wide, and winner of the Marie Hartwig Award, recognizing the Michigan Athletics Female Athlete of the Year. She is presently a business owner and a tireless fundraiser for breast cancer awareness and prevention, raising more than $3 million dollars to date for the Susan G. Komen Foundation.
