Tim Mustapha, '03 | Athletic Hall of Fame Class of 2020

May 22, 2020
One of the most versatile and accomplished male athletes of the past quarter-century, Tim Mustapha was one of the busiest Chargers during his athletic career that spanned from 1998-2003. He was the first Hillsdale College football player to earn All-American honors in the 21st century, when he earned that status during the 2000 season. That year, he led Division II with 11 interceptions, four of them coming in one game vs. Wayne State, both school records that still stand. In his football career, Mustapha accumulated 205 tackles, a school-record 21 interceptions and broke up 46 passes. But his exploits on the diamond might have been even more impressive. He still holds Hillsdale's career records for runs scored and walks, and ranks in the top 10 in a total of nine career and single-season baseball statistical categories. Not content with excelling in those two sports, Mustapha also played basketball and saw time on the Charger men's track team during his collegiate career.
