SLIAC Announces 2010 Hall of Fame Class

ST. LOUIS - St. Louis Intercollegiate Athletic Conference (SLIAC) Commissioner, Will Wolper, has announced the Hall of Fame Class of 2010. Highlighting this year's class are former Fontbonne University's standouts Jason Schellman and Elizabeth Klotz.

Schellman was a four-year letter winner on the Griffins men's soccer team and a four-time First Team All-SLIAC recipient. He was named the SLIAC Newcomer of the Year in 2001 and went on to earn SLIAC Player of the Year in 2002, 2003 and 2004. In addition, he was the SLIAC Tournament MVP in 2004. Schellman helped lead his squad to two SLIAC Regular Season Championships (2003 & 2004) and the SLIAC Tournament Championship in 2004. Fontbonne's 2004 squad also set a SLIAC record for most league/tournament wins in a season with 16.

Schellman currently holds two school records at Fontbonne. He is the Griffins all-time leading goal scorer with 55 and all-time leader in points with 124. He scored at least 11 goals in each of his four seasons and was the leading goal scorer all four years. Schellman graduated from Fontbonne in 2005 with a bachelor's degree in communication studies.

She was a four-time All-SLIAC honoree, earning Second Team honors as a freshman and First Team honors in her final three seasons. She was also named the SLIAC Player of the Year in 2002-03 and 2003-04, while leading the league in rebounding (9.6 per game) as a junior and rebounding (8.7 per game) and scoring (18.8 per game) as a senior.

During her four years Fontbonne captured two SLIAC Regular Season Championships and made two NCAA Division III Tournament appearances.
