Lou and Mary Henson Excellence Fund
The
Lou and Mary Henson Excellence Fund
(formerly Aggie Athletic Club) honors Coach Lou Henson’s enduring legacy at New Mexico State University — a legacy rooted in leadership, opportunity, and belief in our student-athletes. A proud alum (’55, ’56) and NMSU’s winningest men’s basketball coach, Henson saw athletics as a pathway to education and lifelong success.
As the official fundraising arm of Aggie Athletics, the Lou and Mary Henson Excellence Fund supports more than 425 student-athletes across 15 sports, providing scholarships, academic resources, and training support so Aggies can thrive on the field, in the classroom, and beyond.
