Beginning in 1997, the Highland Community College Athletic Hall of Fame was established for the purpose of recognizing and honoring former student athletes, coaches, faculty, staff, athletic teams, and special contributors whose accomplishments have brought prestige, honor, and/or support to Highland Community College’s Athletics.
Each year, Highland Community College accepts nominations for the Athletic Hall of Fame. To nominate a prospective candidate for induction, you may submit your nomination by clicking HERE. If you have any questions, please feel free to contact Jerre Cole, Athletic Director, at jcole@highlandcc.edu, or by calling (785) 442-6041.
