What an incredible night celebrating the 75th anniversary of the Wisconsin Athletic Hall of Fame! We were thrilled to induct three legends: "NBA on TNT" personality Ernie Johnson, Jr., Packers great Mason Crosby, and Wisconsin standout Joe Thomas.
More than 300 business and community leaders filled the Baird Center for an evening packed with memorable moments. Guests were greeted on the Hall of Fame Walkway by Olympic legend Bonnie Blair and one of her gold medals. The event was expertly hosted by HOF board president Donald Driver, and we were honored to award four high school students with the Driven at Heart Scholarships, courtesy of Cousins.
From the inspiring stories shared by our inductees to a special memorial for the late HOF member and broadcasting icon Bob Uecker, the night was a powerful tribute to Wisconsin's athletic history.
A huge thank you to everyone who attended and to our generous sponsors: T&M Partners, Network Health, Kohler Co., Cousins, and Associated Bank.
Watch for more information soon on the 76th anniversary induction event scheduled for 2026.
