SHDHS Athletic Hall of of Fame

Beginning in 2026, St. Henry District High School will introduce a rebranded Athletic Hall of Fame program designed to celebrate the proud traditions of Crusader athletics while continuing to recognize individuals who have made outstanding contributions to our school community.
Aligning with our motto “ Once a Crusader, Always a Crusader”, one thing will never change: once a Hall of Famer, always a Hall of Famer. All past inductees will remain honored members of the St. Henry Hall of Fame.

The updated program will highlight athletic achievements while also allowing for special recognition of alumni, coaches, and community members who have made a lasting impact on SHDHS. Our goal is to bring renewed energy to this tradition.

Below you will find a link to submit nominations for the Athletic Hall of Fame. Please submit your nominations by April 15, 2026. Our Hall of Fame Committee, made up of alumni, staff, and community members, will review all nominations.

In the near future, we will announce the first class of inductees under this rebranded model. They will be honored during what we are calling Crusader Homecoming and Hall of Fame Week. Inductees will be recognized at the football game on October 14, followed by a formal ceremony at SHDHS on October 16.
We look forward to receiving your nominations and celebrating the incredible individuals who have helped shape St. Henry District High School.
