Washington-Liberty accepting Hall of Fame nominations

The Washington-Liberty High School Athletic Hall of Fame is accepting nominations for 2024-25 inductees until Nov. 7.

The Hall of Fame recognizes individuals who through their accomplishments brought distinction and pride to the school and community as an athlete, coach, administrator or contributor.

Candidates become eligible five years after graduation or retirement, or in special circumstances. Inductions are limited to six individuals per year.

An athlete nominated must have made an outstanding contribution to a sport or through an administrative position. Typically, this may include all-county, all-region and all-state honors, an all-time leading scorer, a state championship, or organizational skills that have enhanced the overall athletic program.

Nominations can be made by anyone. Forms are available through the Washington-Liberty student activities office and the W-L athletic booster organization.

Forms can be sent by mail, hand delivered to the Washington-Liberty activities office or emailed to Justin Bolfek at [email protected].
