The Athletic Hall of
Fame committee was formed in an attempt to honor those who have
significantly contributed to Mt. Morris Blue Devil athletics.
We have developed specific entrance criteria and voting procedures.
The plan is to hold an induction ceremony in late November or early
December each year and hang plaques of those inducted in the hall
outside the gymnasium. With your help, this will begin in
2007. In year one, a maximum of ten members will be inducted.
In subsequent years, no more than five will be inducted. In
the event of a tie, the Committee shall have the right to induct
additional members.
Please take some time to nominate those who you
feel are deserving of such an honor. Please also help by spreading
the word to anyone who may be of assistance. The criteria for
