The Athletic Hall of Fame exemplifies the rich tradition of Notre Dame athletics each Fall.  The celebratory Mass, awards dinner and induction ceremony honor individual athletes, legendary coaches, special contributors and outstanding teams who have made the school proud through the years while displaying their dedication, spirit and athletic talents on the courts and fields.

When the doors opened in 1957, Msgr. William Capik served as the school’s first athletic moderator and William “Doc” Creamer as the school’s first athletic director. Soon to follow were Vince Ardery, Barb Major, and John Simone to continue to build the strong tradition of excellence with successful programs, which helped shape the lives of the student athletes.
