University of Montevallo Athletics

An early years participant in this institution's baseball program, 1989 UM Hall of Fame inductee, Billy Cotton has shown his appreciation to his alma mater in an extremely supportive fashion. Without question, he is the University of Montevallo Athletic Program's number one benefactor. Following a very generous gift in the fund drive to install lights at Kermit Johnson Field, he has continued to make annual contributions to the Um Falcon Club. His gifts to date total more than $100,000.

A graduate of Alabama College, Billy is now the Secretary-Treasurer of Cardner Mirror Corporation in North Wilkesboro, in North Carolina. His enormous contributions to the UM Athletic Program have been acknowledged by the naming of the baseball office/pressbox/concessions area in his honor.
