Alumni - Athletic Hall of Fame Members

The Vermont Academy Athletic Hall of Fame was established in 1982 to recognize and honor those persons who have made outstanding contributions to the Vermont Academy athletic program. While demonstrated prowess in athletics is the foundation for this honor, additional consideration may be given to other achievements as a student, demonstrating a spirit of fair play and integrity, and a commitment to an ongoing involvement with Vermont Academy.

Athletes, coaches, and special contributors to the athletic program may all be considered for membership in the Athletic Hall of Fame after being associated with Vermont Academy for at least one year. Alumni candidates must have graduated at least ten (10) years prior to induction.
