THE WHEATLEY SCHOOL
ATHLETIC HALL OF FAME
The Wheatley School Athletic Hall of
Fame provides lasting recognition for Wheatley athletes and
coaches who have performed in an exemplary manner throughout
their high school careers and/or beyond. The Hall of Fame also
recognizes varsity teams that attained a high level of
achievement. Inductees into the Wheatley Athletic Hall of Fame
are recommended by a selection committee comprised of the
Athletic Director and members of the Varsity Club and Athletic
Department coaching staff. The Wheatley school and community
congratulate those who have brought such well-deserved
recognition to our athletic program. We are grateful for
their contributions to The Wheatley School.
