CHARLESTON, S.C. – The 2019 Citadel Hall of Fame will induct five new members at the annual Hall of Fame Banquet on Sept. 20. The banquet will be held at the Charleston Marriott (1700 Lockwood Drive). The reception will begin at 6 p.m. with the program starting at 6:45 p.m.
 
As we approach the event, we will take a closer look at each inductee. Next up is football player James "Jimmy" Lee.
 
James Lee, Football, Class of 1971
A menace to opposing offenses, Jimmy Lee was a force on the Bulldogs' defensive front during his career. He entered his senior season as one of eight defensive ends on the preseason watch lists and did not disappoint. When the season was over, Lee was an Honorable Mention All-American, First-Team All-Southern Conference and First-Team All-South Carolina.
 
Lee's accomplishments were not limited to football as he was also a long jumper and triple jumper on the track and field team.
