Home Phone: -- UL Hall Honors New Inductees Bruce Brown Sharing the homecoming spotlight with Louisiana’s Ragin’ Cajuns on Saturday were four new members of the Ragin’ Cajuns Lettermen Club’s Hall of Fame. The quartet – weight lifter Gene Hebert, tennis ace Carter Lomax Jr., multi-threat track and field star Larry Moore and linebacker Michael Neustrom – were introduced during halftime of UL’s 31-28 overtime thriller over Troy University at Cajun Field. “You forget how much fun it is to be here, and how nice the people are,” said Lomax, a doctor in Kalamazoo, Mich. “That hasn’t changed. The spirit is the same.” Lomax was enthusiastic about joining former mid-1970’s doubles partner and previous inductee Skipper Hunt in the UL Hall. “I’m ecstatic that Skipper’s in here, too,” Lomax said. “You start thinking back to some of the good times here.” Hebert, who excelled in his sport from 1959-64, is eager to see the Hall find a home with future remodeling of the athletic complex. “It’s a great, great honor to be recognized with such an elite group of athletes,” Hebert said. “I hope to continue to be involved with the university and I absolutely want to see the Hall find a home.” Neustrom, the Lafayette Parish sheriff, has been around many previous introductions of Hall classes, but enjoyed joining the list. “It’s a little different when you’re involved with it,” said Neustrom, who led UL to Gulf States Conference titles in 1965 and 1968. Moore, an All-American in the 55-meter hurdles and the triple jump, now runs Moorehouse Productions as well as serving as a music professor at Elizabeth City State. “We laid the foundation,” Moore said of his days at UL in 1991-1992 under coach Charles Lancon. “They wanted to get something good started, and to come from Blinn (College) and help start it was an honor.” Ragin’ Cajun Lettermen Club Hall of Fame: Neustrom Among Induction Class Bruce Brown The induction of four new members into the Ragin’ Cajuns Lettermen Club’s Athletic Hall of Fame is one of the showcase events this week as the University of Louisiana celebrates homecoming. The 2005 class includes weight lifter Gene Hebert (1959-64), tennis ace Carter Lomax, Jr., M.D. (1975-76), track and field standout Larry Moore (1991-92) and football linebacker Mike Neustrom (1965-68). Hebert was a four-year letterman in gymnastics and a two-year letter winner in weight lifting. Lomax and fellow Hall of Fame member Skipper Hunt were the first high-profile stars of the Jerry Simmons Era of UL tennis. Moore was an All-American in both the triple jump and 55-meter hurdles, leading the Cajuns of coach Charles Lancon to dominance of the Sun Belt Conference in men’s track during a multi-event two-year stay with the Cajuns. Neustrom was an all-conference and All-American linebacker for the Cajuns of coach Russ Faulkinberry, leading the 1965 and 1968 squads to the Gulf States Conference championship.
