In 1980, Northfield Mount Hermon established an Athletic Hall of Fame. Its purpose: to honor the alumni, coaches, and members of undefeated teams who have demonstrated extraordinary athletic ability, sportsmanship, and leadership on campus, and who, even after they left Northfield Mount Hermon, continued to exemplify the school’s mission of education—and life—for the head, heart, and hand.
Nominations for new members are accepted each year. To be eligible, alumni must have graduated at least five years prior. A committee made up of representatives from the athletics department, the Alumni Council, and the Office of Alumni Programs will make the selections, and new members will be inducted on campus during Homecoming weekend in October. Nominations for the 2011 induction year are now closed. Previously submitted nominations will continue to be considered for future years.
The 2011 team inductees were honored during Homecoming on October 29. See photos
