The 43rd class to the Murray State University Hall of Fame includes Ohio Valley Conference (OVC) champions, hometown heroes and many school records holders whose decades-old records still stand today. These eight Racers greats will be officially inducted in early 2026.
Having been coached under football stadium namesake Johnny Reagan from 1978-91, Danny Alfeldt is the oldest member of the 2025 class. He finished as Murray State’s career leader in at-bats, hits and doubles. During his tenure, he helped win the 1991 OVC regular season championship.
Three-time All-OVC pick and two-time CoSida Academic All-American winner Alexa Baker became the first in school history in runs scored (153), third in RBI (132) and seventh in hits (198). She started as a freshman in 2011 and still remains at the top of the program statistics.
Murray native Casey Brockman (2009-12) joins teammate Marcus Harris as the third quarterback/wide receiver duo to be inducted into the Hall of Fame following Larry Tillman, inducted in 1978, and Harvey Tanner, inducted in 1992, and Mike Cherry and Reggie Swinton, who were inducted in 2022. Brockman broke numerous passing records during his tenure and was a back-to-back All-American in 2011 and 2012, Walter Payton Award finalist and one of six three-time All-OVC selections in Racer football history.
Wide receiver counterpart to Brockman, Marcus Harris, finished his collegiate career in 2010 as the program’s all-time leader in receptions (216), yards (2,471) and touchdowns (22). His professional career included five National Football League seasons, one with the Lions (2011), one with the Titans (2012) and the remaining three with Giants (2013-15). He also spent time with both the United Football League and the Arena Football League.
Rachel Guistino began her time as a Racer with Hall of Famer Scottie Ingram in 2016. By 2019, Guistino had surpassed Ingram’s top records and played on two OVC championship teams for coach Dave Schwepker. Within 2017-2019, she was named a three-time OVC pick, 2019 OVC Player of the Year and the 2019 American Volleyball Coaches Association award recipient.
In 2012, Tonia Pratt won the OVC indoor weight throw and outdoor happier throw, as well as OVC Freshman of the Year. By the end of her career, she held seven OVC championships and still holds Murray State’s shot put, discus and hammer throw records. She began her career in the fall of 2011 with then head coach Jenny Severns and finished in 2015 with current head coach Adam Kiesler.
Seven-time All-American and Paris Olympic games rifle competitor Ivan Roe certainly earned his spot as a Murray State hall of famer, as he maintained an advantage over his fellow nationally-ranked teammates for four seasons in both smallbore and air rifle.
Men’s basketball all-time shot blocker Cuthbert Victor became a Racer in 2000 under fellow MSU hall of famer, coach Tevester Anderson, after growing up in St. Croix, Virgin Islands. Victor became an All-American and OVC Player of the Year as a senior in 2004 under coach Mick Cronin, and he remains at number nine all-time in Murray State field goal percentages and top-20 in points and career goals made. He traveled for 13 years playing professionally in Spain, Russia, France, South Korea and Puerto Rico.
This is the 43rd Hall of Fame class since its founding in 1965 under football coach Roy Stewart, who was inducted in 1971. The total number of inductees is now 196. The date of this class’ induction will be announced at a later date.
