Career Highlights
Other nominees were:
Michael Rodden AwardDr. Bob Pickering started serving as the football team physician in 1976, at the same time as long-standing medical men Dr. John Kerr and Dr. Hal Dunlop were readying to retire. He quickly recruited fellow emergency physicians Dr. Wayne Spotswood and Dr. David Walker to join the football medical team, establishing a triumvirate that has remained together for a quarter century. A 1970 graduate of Queen's Medicine, Dr. Pickering served as an Associate Professor in the Medical School's Department of Surgery, and also headed up the Sports Medicine Clinic at Kingston General Hospital. Now retired from teaching, he has recently held medical positions with Corrections Canada, Department of National Defence and Veterans Affairs while continuing to treat Queen's teams. He was inducted into the Queen's Football Hall of Fame this past fall. Hal Dunlop AwardJennifer Walsh has served as a trainer to the men's hockey and men's rugby teams. Queens Special Recognition AwardsLen Coyle, Phil Marshall and Bubs Van Hooser have become a fixture on the football sidelines, working together on the timekeepers table for over 40 years. While not officially tracked, their combined years of service are somewhere in the region of 160 years. Len Coyle has been working Queen's games for almost 60 years. A "rink rat" in his youth, Len spent many weekends at the old Jock Harty Arena, befriending then-facility manager Dutch Dougall in the process. It was Dougall who recruited Len for football game-day work, bringing him onboard in 1947 to operate the old manual scoreboard at Richardson Stadium. Since the mid-1950s, Len has served as the score clock timekeeper. An electrician by trade, he was responsible for maintaining the temperamental, 1950s-vintage scoreboard that remained in use until the mid-1990s. A trainer with the Kingston Frontenacs and their predecessors since 1973, Len has been at every Queen's football home game since 1954. Phil Marshall began his involvement with Queen's in the late-1940s, recruited by Dutch Dougall to take tickets at home games. After a few years at the gate, he switched to working as a timekeeper in the early-1950s. He has been at it ever since, like his fellow-honourees working becoming a familiar face to players and followers alike. Phil served as a hockey official for nearly 30 years, at times officiating at Queen's men's and women's hockey games, and also acted as a starter at Kingston Speedway. A retired construction supervisor, Phil is being inducted this year to the Kingston Sports Hall of Fame for his contribution to local sports. Bubs Van Hooser was another Jock Harty "rink rat" who joined the football game crew. After a few seasons of watching games from the scorers table, Bubs completed the current triumvirate when he took over scoreboard operations upon in the early-1960s. Now retired from a career as a painter, Bubs also pitched fastball for some twenty years. Special Merit PlaquesCharlene Barter - Women's Rugby
