St. Norbert College

Hall of Fame

St. Norbert College Athletics Hall of Fame

The St. Norbert College Intercollegiate Athletics Hall of Fame was established in 1986 to give tribute and deserved recognition to former athletes, coaches and friends of the college. It is also intended to enhance school tradition by honoring those who have shown such exceptional ability while on the campus and since graduation. The Hall of Fame increased its membership to 164 with the 2023 inductions.

Members of the Hall of Fame are selected on a biennial basis by a seven-person committee appointed by the St. Norbert athletics director. Nominations from the public are always welcome and may be sent to the athletics director. To be eligible for the Hall of Fame, athletes must be a graduate of St. Norbert College and be 10 years past their graduation year. This does not apply to contributors to the athletic department (St. Norbert coaches, staff, etc.).

The next Hall of Fame Induction is scheduled for Saturday, October 18, 2025 as part of Homecoming weekend. Event information is available HERE.
