THIBODAUX – Nominations for the third class of the Hall of Distinction at Nicholls State University are now open. Individuals or groups nominated must have promoted, enhanced or elevated the state of intercollegiate Nicholls athletics and been instrumental in the role that athletics plays in the lives of student athletes.
