BLACKSBURG -- Corey Moore, the most honored football player in Virginia Tech history, is one of five new members selected for induction to the Virginia Tech Sports Hall of Fame.

Joining Moore as 2010 inductees are:

n Gene Bunn, a defensive back of the 1970s who set a Tech career pass interception record that still stands today.

n Michelle Meadows, a record-setting softball player who excelled on the diamond and in the classroom during her four-year career.

n Laurie Shiflet Hackbirth, the first female tennis player in Tech history to finish a season with regional and national rankings in singles.

n The late Duke Thorpe, a basketball forward of the mid-70s whose relentless play helped him etch his name into the Tech record book.

The five new honorees will be inducted at a Hall of Fame dinner on the Tech campus on Oct. 22, the evening before Tech's home football game against Duke.

Each of the living inductees and families of all of the inductees will be introduced to fans at halftime of the football game.

The new inductees will bring the total number enshrined to 152.

The Virginia Tech Sports Hall of Fame was established in 1982 and is currently located near the Bowman Room on the fourth floor of the Jamerson Athletic Center.

Hall of Fame plaques engraved with portraits of all the members are displayed there.

Under Tech Hall of Fame guidelines, persons are not eligible for induction until they have been out of school for a period of 10 years.
