Jordan Crawford, Aaron Williams among 2025 Xavier University Athletic Hall of Fame class

The Xavier University Athletic Department will induct four new members to its Hall of Fame in a few months.

The school announced Monday that Jordan Crawford, Aaron Williams, Amy Siefring and Zachary Polk will be inducted into the Xavier Athletics Hall of Fame on Friday, Feb. 14, in a ceremony at Cintas Center. The four inductees will be honored at halftime the next day when Xavier hosts DePaul.

Crawford helped lead the Musketeers to an Atlantic 10 Championship and a trip to the Sweet 16 in his lone eligible season at Xavier in 2010. Crawford began his career at Indiana, then transferred to Xavier and sat out the 2008-2009 season. In 2010, he averaged 20.5 points per game and was the Atlantic 10 Conference Player of the Year.

In the NCAA Tournament, Crawford was voted to the All-West Region Team after scoring 28 points in a first-round win over Minnesota and 27 points in the Round of 32 against Pittsburgh. Crawford scored 32 points in his final game with the Musketeers, a Sweet 16 loss to Kansas State that Crawford sent to double overtime with a dramatic game-tying 3-pointer.

A first-round pick of the New Jersey Nets, Crawford spent six seasons in the NBA before continuing his career overseas.

Xavier was put on the map in the 1980s when the Musketeers became a March Madness mainstay. In an 11-season span from 1983-1993, Xavier made the NCAA Tournament eight times and Williams played a big role in that success under Pete Gillen.

In four seasons, Williams played in 117 games for the Musketeers and collectively averaged 9.2 points and 6.1 rebounds a night. As a freshman, he played in 28 games to help lead Xavier to the program’s first Sweet 16 appearance in 1990. Williams was first-team all-conference in 1992 and eclipsed 1,000 career collegiate points. Williams ranks second all-time in school history in blocks (197) and is top 20 in career rebounds.

Williams played in 14 NBA seasons, which is tied with Tyrone Hill for the second-most by a Xavier alum, trailing only David West (15).

Amy Siefring, now Amy Meyer, is 15th in Xavier women’s basketball history in scoring (1, 340 points). Playing under Mark Ehlen, Siefring helped lead Xavier to a Midwestern Collegiate Conference Tournament title in 1993 and the program’s first-ever NCAA Tournament berth. As a senior in 1996, Siefring ranked third in the Atlantic-10 Conference in scoring (18.3 points per game).

Polk holds the all-time record for most Big East Championship medals (17) and points in Xavier track and field history. The 2018 graduate ranked in the top 5 in all five of his events, setting the school record in the long jump and as a part of the 4-x-100 relay. He was an All-Big East selection for both the indoor and outdoor track and field seasons as a sophomore and junior. In 2016, he set a Big East record with 38 points in the conference championships.
