Former Husky Greg Lewis is in his sixth year as the executive director of the Big "W" Alumni Club, and added Special Assistant to the Athletic Director to his title in 2004. Lewis is responsible for the development and implementation of programs and services engaging former student athletes, including the Huskies' Legends Program, which recognizes former Husky greats at UW home football games.

Lewis made a name for himself as a star tailback at Washington from 1987 to 1990. As a senior, he rushed for 1,279 yards, a school record at the time, and earned Pac-10 Conference Offensive Player of the Year honors. Lewis was also lauded with the inaugural Doak Walker Award, given to the nation's top junior or senior running back, and finished seventh in the Heisman Trophy voting, the highest finish ever for a Husky offensive player.

After he finished his college career, Lewis spent two seasons with the Denver Broncos before returning to complete his degree in political science from UW in 1993.

He has two daughters, Briana and Janee.
