ANNUAL ATHLETICS GALA
SET FOR FEBRUARY 6

--Dr. Larry Price to be inducted into
Silversword Hall of Fame--


HONOLULU--January 7, 2010--Chaminade University will induct Dr. Lawrence "Larry" Price into its Silversword Hall of Fame at its second annual intercollegiate athletics gala on Saturday, Feb. 6, starting at 6 p.m., to be held in the Pacific Beach Hotel. "We are delighted to recognize Dr. Price, who has been a strong supporter of Chaminade and an excellent faculty member," said Chaminade President Bro. Bernard Ploeger. "Larry is a great example for all our students because his very life models the definition of a scholar-athlete and the education of the whole person."

Price earned accolades from his football playing and coaching days at the University of Hawaii-Manoa, his career with the Los Angeles Rams, and his current 25-year stint as the co-host of KSSK Radio's Perry and Price Show. However, he has also earned his doctorate in philosophy from the University of Southern California and completed post-doctoral work at Stanford University. He has been teaching at Chaminade University for nearly 30 years. He became an MBA professor at Chaminade in 1982 and is considered a beloved faculty member by generations of students. A dedicated teacher and financial supporter of the university, he has a scholarship and classroom named for him.

The gala will also feature as its keynote speaker Rick Blangiardi, senior vice president of KHNL and KGMB. A former football player and coach for University of Hawaii--Manoa, Blangiardi is known for his enthusiastic motivational style, giving keen insight on how to reach goals and pursue excellence. Blangiardi actively serves as a member on Chaminade University's board of regents.

The gala event supports Chaminade's Athletic Department and student-athletes through funding for athletic programs, travel opportunities, scholarships, and equipment.
