Victor Lebron, Class of 2014 - Victor was one of eleven Hall of Fame nominees on the ballot.   Victor, a former standout on the baseball diamond, played for the Falcons from 2011-2014, and graduated in 2015.  During his time as a Falcon, Victor was key component to a team that won 118 games during his 4-year span.  He led the team in hitting with a .366 average in 2013, leading his team to a 35-game win season. Then in 2014, his senior year, the team went on to best that total winning 37 games. Because Victor played during the transition years for the athletics program where they were in three different conferences over four years, he is the only player in school history to have won All-Conference awards in all three conferences. 

After finishing his playing career at Fisher College, Victor signed his first professional contract in November of 2014, with the Texas Airhogs of the American Association Professional Baseball League.  During that time, Victor also managed to complete his degree at Fisher College.  After a short stint with the Airhogs, Victor moved to the Can-Am Professional Baseball League and played for the Garden State Grays and the Sussex County Miners. Victor also played in the Yawkey Baseball league as a member of the East Boston Knights which plays host to several former Fisher Falcons.

Coach Dulin said, “Victor Lebron is most deserving of this honor.  He is the third former Falcon baseball player from Union City, NJ to be selected to enter this great Hall of Fame.  Victor’s statistics speak for themselves, but it was his energy and enthusiasm that made him a great leader.  His willingness to do whatever it took to help the team is unmatched.  The fact that he won three All-Conference Awards at three different positions in three different conferences speaks volumes of his selflessness.  He took that same versatility into the professional ranks and played all over the field at a high level.  Victor could have walked away from Fisher College when he signed his first contract, but he went on to play professionally while still obtaining his degree, which was always paramount for him.  Knowing where he came from, the adversity he had to deal with along the way and the success he had, I can truly say, Victor has earned the right to be a permanent part of Fisher College history by being in the Hall of Fame."

Upon graduation in 2015, Lebron earned his Bachelor's Degree in Business Management.
