April 30, 2020, marked the second SAU Tech Rocket Athletics Induction Ceremony for the College. Dr. Jason Morrison, during a Facebook Live event, announced the 2020 inductees and thanked the community for all the support given in the last few years for the new NJCAA athletic programs started by SAU Tech.

After taking the job of SAU Tech's Chancellor, Morrison made state news with his plans to implement NJCAA athletics at SAU Tech. In the '70s and 8o's, the College had an NJCAA gymnastics and men's basketball with the women's gymnastics winning national titles. The revival of men's basketball and the addition of women's basketball and softball garnered support and excitement from both students and the community.

In 2019, during the SAU Tech Foundation's Rocket Night fundraiser, Morrison inducted the first-ever Rocket women's basketball team, the first Rocket Cheer Squad, the first Rocket men's team, and the 1984 gymnastics team into the SAU Tech Rocket Athletics Hall of Fame. This year due to the COVID-19 restrictions, the event was streamed via Facebook. The ceremony started with Morrison expressing his gratitude for all the community support in making the first-ever SAU Tech Rocket Softball team a reality. He also thanked softball coaches Philip and Amy Diehl and Vice Chancellor for Student Services and Rocket Athletic Director, David McLeane. The inductions included the first-ever SAU Tech Rocket softball team members below, along with the team's coaches, assistant coach, and team manager.

Mitzi Bartek Harris, a resident of Flowermound, Texas, and a member of the 1984 and 85 teams was unable to attend the event but shared her thoughts about the induction ceremony. Harris stated, "On behalf of the entire gymnastics team, we are truly honored to be inducted into the 2nd Annual SAU-Tech's Athletics Hall of Fame. The staff, student body, and town of Camden always supported, embraced, and treated us all in such a special way. It was a privilege to bring all of them back-to-back National Jr. College Championships! All of our hard work, blood, sweat, and tears were definitely worth our accomplishments and memories we'll cherish forever. Thank you, SAU Tech and town of Camden."

The ceremony ended with a heartfelt presentation by Morrison to David McLeane. Morrison thanked McLeane for all his hard work and for graciously accepting the add-on job of the College's athletic director when Morrison began the work of instating NJCAA athletics. Morrison inducted McLeane as the first SAU Tech Rocket Athletic Director and surprised McLeane with his wife, Teresa, daughters, and son-in-law arriving for the event. McLeane graciously accepted the commemorative plaque from Morrison and thanked Morrison for his vision and his relentless determination to make athletics available for SAU Tech's students. McLeane, a former public school teacher and coach,  said that "It was all God's plan that allowed me to return to a role in sports during my last few years of work at SAU Tech, and I am  truly thankful." McLeane will retire from SAU Tech in June of this year.

 Morrison wrapped up the event reminding the audience that Houston Nutt would be speaking at the Foundation's Rocket Night event in 2021 since he was unable to attend this year due to the COVID-19 restrictions. For more information on the SAU Tech Rockets, go to http://www.sautrockets.com.
