WINCHESTER, Va. - The Shenandoah University Department of Intercolligiate Athletics is inducting five individuals into its Hall of Fame Class of 2026, with the week's spotlight focusing on Hayden Bauserman '18, the Hornets' quarterback from 2015-18.

In 2018, the Woodstock, Virginia native won the Lanier Award, which is given to the best DII/DIII/NAIA player in the commonwealth of Virginia, and was named a finalist for the Gagliardi Award. That same season, he was named ODAC J. Stokeley Fulton Offensive Player of the Year and Virginia Sports Information Directors Association Player of the Year.

Throughout his career, he earned First Team All-ODAC three times, two All-Region nods, and was named ODAC Player of the Week five times.
