Wisconsin Athletic Hall of Fame's Distinguished Inductees
The Wisconsin Athletic Hall of Fame is filled with 150+ individuals who epitomize greatness.
Some are household names, like Hank Aaron, Bart Starr, Vince Lombardi and Oscar Robertson. And they represent a wide range of sports - from baseball, football and basketball to auto racing, water skiing, bowling, cycling and speed skating.
And they are all here to be honored by each of us for their extraordinary achievements in sport.
