Mark Jones (BA '85) lead the York men's basketball team to three OUAA championships (1981, 1984-85) and two silver medals in his five years with the team (1980-81, 1982-86). During his career he was one of the top players in the OUAA, earning conference second-team all-star honours in 1984 and 1985 and capping his career with a first-team all-star nod in 1986. A prolific guard for the Yeomen, he still ranks among the program's top five all-time in total assists and steals. After graduating from York, Jones moved into broadcasting and has built a tremendous career, first with TSN from 1986-90 before moving on to work for ESPN, where he has covered college football and basketball, as well as the NBA and WNBA. Jones joins his older brother Paul, who was inducted in 2009, in York's Sport Hall of Fame.
