Charlie LaBelle, GROWMARK senior energy analyst, will be inducted into the Saint Louis Univeristy (SLU) Billiken Hall of Fame at a ceremony in January. The Billiken Hall of Fame inducted its initial class in 1976. Since then, more than 240 student-athletes, teams, and dignitaries have been selected for the Hall of Fame.
LaBelle is honored in the category of Billiken Great-Pioneer for the sport of ice hockey during the years 1971-1975. He was a key member of the early ice hockey squads that established SLU as a national power in the sport under head coach Bill Selman. Throughout his career, LaBelle accumulated 86 goals and 100 assists while helping the Billikens to a pair of Central Collegiate Hockey Association (CCHA) regular-season and tournament championships. A crafty left-winger, he twice scored five goals in one game, a CCHA record that still stands. In addition, he holds the distinction of scoring the first short-handed and game-winning goals in CCHA history.

The great thing about Charlie is that his market advice is as good as his hockey skill....
