INDUCTEE BIOGRAPHIES
Fuquan Edwin '14 was an outstanding two-way player for the men's basketball team from 2010-14 as he is one of only two players in program history with over 1,600 career points and over 200 career steals. He holds both the program's career steals mark with 295 and the single-season mark with 102. Originally from Paterson, N.J., Edwin is also one of only four Pirates to ever win an NCAA statistical title, leading the nation in steals at 3.00 per game in 2011-12. He was a 2014 second-team All-BIG EAST and NABC All-District honoree, the 2014 BIG EAST Defensive Player of the Year and a two-time All-Met first team selection.
Vickie Lamb '01 was one of the most prolific hitters in Seton Hall softball history and part of the program's first wave of great success. She graduated as the all-time leader in batting average, hitting a robust .376 from 1997-2001 and is also top-10 in runs scored, hits, doubles, home runs and walks. In 1999, the Yorktown Heights, N.Y., native hit .462, by far the best single-season batting average in school history. Lamb was a three-time All-BIG EAST selection, two-time BIG EAST All-Academic selection and helped Seton Hall earn its first-ever NCAA Tournament bid in 2001.
Dawn Johnson '95 was a star frontcourt player for the women's basketball team during a period of extraordinary success from 1991-95. When she graduated, the Lyndhurst, N.J., native ranked eighth all-time in scoring, seventh in rebounds and third in field goal percentage. She also graduated as the program's all-time leader in blocks with 218, a record that still stands today. She was a two-time All-BIG EAST and All-Academic selection, was named the 1995 New Jersey Player of the Year and was part of back-to-back NCAA Tournament teams in 1994 and 1995, including a run to the Sweet Sixteen in 1994.
Kevin Morton '96 was a very successful pitcher for the baseball program in the late 1980s and part of the famed 1987 squad that won the BIG EAST Championship. As a junior in 1989, he posted one of the most prolific seasons in school history, going 11-2 with a 1.67 ERA and 100 strikeouts in 97 innings. A Norwalk, Conn., native, Morton was named the 1989 BIG EAST Pitcher of the Year and a third-team All-American before becoming a first-round selection of the Boston Red Sox in the 1989 MLB Draft. In his MLB debut in 1991, Morton had a complete-game, nine-strikeout performance.
Peter Scavo '00 was an elite goal scorer for the Pirates in the late 1990s, serving as the offensive catalyst throughout his time at The Hall. Originally from Somerville, N.J., Scavo ranks third all-time in goals (50) and points (122) and leads the program with 20 all-time game-winning goals. He was the 1999 BIG EAST Offensive Player of the Year, a four-time All-BIG EAST and All-Mid Atlantic selection and the 1998 New Jersey Player of the Year. Scavo will be inducted posthumously after tragically passing away in 2021 at the age of 42.
