Methodist Athletics Hall of Fame
While not a varsity sport, or even one particular team for that matter, the Yama Yama Men laid the groundwork for Methodist to begin sponsoring intercollegiate athletics while the University was still in its infancy. The group of students, which remained largely intact from year to year, participated in nearly every intramural sport that was offered at the time and proved to be a more than formidable foe. Capturing nearly every championship awarded, the fervor displayed by the "student-athletes" proved a catalyst to the University's expanding intercollegiate athletics.
