Hall of Fame
George Sample was a member of two All-American relay teams in the sport of track & field. The Blue Streaks finished in third place in the 4x400 Relay at the NCAA Division III Championships in 2002, and fourth in 2001. Sample was also a 2002 National Qualifier in the 400-meter dash.
A nine-time All-OAC performer, Sample captured four league titles in his career. His victory in the 400-meter dash played a big part of John Carroll's OAC Outdoor Track & Field Championship in 2002 - which was, at the time, the school's first league title in that sport in 25 years.
In his four years, Sample collected 22 first place finishes in outdoor track meets, and another 18 first place finishes in his indoor career. He graduated as a school record holder in the 4x400 indoor and outdoor relays.
Sample was also a three-time letter winner as a linebacker in football in addition to earning four letters in track & field.
