1982 Baseball Team,
Troy Truvillion, and Britney Iredale to Be Inducted Into MSJC Athletics Hall of
Fame
Mt. San
Jacinto has unveiled their Athletic Hall of Fame Class of 2017. The class includes two individuals as well as
one of it’s State Runner-up teams. Troy
Truvillion, a men’s basketball player, Britney Iredale, a women’s basketball
player, and
the 1982 baseball team will be inducted into the Hall of Fame in a
ceremony on October 21st.
Truvillion
was named both the conference player of the year and First Team All-State
during the 1988 season for the Eagles as he helped guide the team to a
conference championship and a record of 28-6.
Truvillion went on to star at Eastern Montana University where he is
already enshrined in their Hall of Fame.
Following his college career Truvillion played 11 professional seasons
in Australia and Europe. After retiring
from the game Troy has gone on to serve the youth of Arizona through a number
of companies including Youth Development Services and TruSeven Sports.
Iredale led
the MSJC women’s basketball team to a number of firsts in program history. Iredale was the lone sophomore on the 2007
Lady Eagles squad who captured the first conference title in program history as
well as leading the team to their first ever post season victory. She earned conference player of the year and
first team All-State honors that season, also a first for a member of the Lady
Eagle program. Iredale went on to Upper
Iowa University where she was an All-Conference player in her senior
season. Britney currently works in Law
Enforcement in Arizona.
The 1982
baseball team at MSJC coached by Paul Moore played for the California Community
College Division II Championship.
Despite falling short in the championship game played at the San Jacinto
Campus this Eagle team was just the second in school history to play for a
State title. To this date they are still
just one of five team sports in MSJC history to play in a State Championship
contest. Many members of the '82 team
continue to live and work in the San Jacinto Valley.
Mt. San
Jacinto will also be honoring Charles Silvas, a former coach at the school and
longtime supporter of the Athletic Department with the President’s Award.
The
ceremonies on the 21st will coincide with the Eagles Homecoming
football game against Southwestern College.
The honorees will be celebrated at halftime of the 1 pm game at Carl
Quandt Stadium with a formal induction ceremony to follow that evening.
Online registration has ended. Tickets may be purchased in person at the event.
