NATCHITOCHES -- All former Northwestern State athletic letterwinners can vote during a 10-day period which kicked off Tuesday morning in the selection process for the 2025 N-Club Hall of Fame class honoring some of the Demons' most accomplished athletic figures.
Â
 Voting is done online through the N-Club link at
www.NSUDemons.com/NClubBallot. The 2025 ballot is posted for review. Letterwinners will be able to cast their ballots for their top choices without having to compile a list.
 Â
Deadline to vote will be midnight Thursday, July 17.
Â
Previously, only paid members of the N-Club were able to vote. For the first time, voting is open to anyone who lettered in a sport at Northwestern.
Â
N-Club members' votes will be weighted on a 3-to-1 ratio. Paid members' votes will count three times as much as an unpaid letterwinner's vote, per a recommendation from the N-Club selection committee. Any letterman can join the N-Club by paying the membership fee online during the voting window; a list of paid N-Club members is on the N-Club page.
 Â
N-Club membership is free for just-graduated first-year athletic alumni. Dues afterwards are $120 annually ($10 monthly) with discounted longer-term rates available.
 Â
Anyone who pays N-Club membership dues prior to the voting deadline will have the 3-to-1 valuation applied to their ballot. Votes are compiled on a weighted point structure.
 Â
Selection of the N-Club Hall of Fame inductees is made by a combination of online voting along with assessment of the N-Club selection committee, which is comprised of over a dozen former competitors and staff members representing the range of sports contested at Northwestern. The online voting results are a primary factor.
 Â
Approximately a dozen former athletic standouts will be honored on Homecoming weekend, culminating with a morning induction ceremony Saturday, Oct. 4.
