(Versailles, Ind.) - South Ripley High School is proud to announce the establishment of the South Ripley Athletic Hall of Fame, a program dedicated to honoring the exceptional athletes, coaches, and contributors who have left an indelible mark on our school's athletic legacy.

Individuals must be nominated to be considered for induction. Nominees should have distinguished themselves through significant achievements as a student-athlete or coach, or through meritorious service to SRHS. Additionally, former student-athletes who have brought distinction to SRHS through their post high school achievements are also eligible for consideration.

Nominations will be considered by the South Ripley Athletic Hall of Fame Committee. These committee members, drawn from the South Ripley community, are committed to upholding the highest standards of athletic excellence.

Nomination forms for individuals to be considered for induction into the Hall of Fame will be accepted from the public and must be received by November 1 to be considered for the current year's class. Nomination forms for individuals not selected for induction in the first year, will be considered for an additional five years before a new nomination will be required.

Up to eight members will be selected for induction in the inaugural 2025 class. The 2026 class will include up to six new inductees, with up to four members being inducted in subsequent years, ensuring that the Hall of Fame continues to recognize excellence across generations.

Each year new inductees will be recognized at a varsity basketball game. Additionally, an official banquet will be held each spring, providing each inductee with the opportunity to celebrate this accomplishment with friends and family.
