The Big 5 announced its 2023 Hall of Fame class Thursday, with one player from each school — three men’s players and two women’s players. The top scorer in the group: Temple’s David Hawkins, who had 2,007 points in his Owls career.

Penn’s Perry Bromwell, the 1987 Ivy League player of the year and a three-time all-Ivy first-teamer, is the senior selection in the class that will be inducted on April 10 at the Big 5 awards banquet at the Palestra.
