2010 WHS Athletic Hall of Fame Class

Thursday evening at the High School nine new selections will be inducted as members of the Wellsville High School Athletic Hall of Fame. The ceremony is included as part of this year's All-Class Reunion festivities.

We promised in February that we would have more later on the selections. They are in posts below starting with the late Mr. James Carter. Mr. Carter & John Euill were selected from the WHS Senior Era and the other seven from the Modern Era. We just included some of the high lights of each. There will be a souvenir program with more detailed biographies available for a nominal donation at the induction ceremonies. The pictures we're showing are for each selections' senior year yearbooks, except for Mr. Carter. Carter graduated in 1942 and the only picture we could locate was in the 1941 book.

Special thanks to Karen Dash, Bud Ceneviva and the rest of the Hall of Fame Selection Committee for all the information they shared. Also, again, thanks to Brassy Beresford and the Wellsville Historical Society for allowing us to use the archived year books at the River Museum.

The Hall of Fame induction ceremony is set to begin at 7 P.M. at the "new" high school. Admission is free and seating will be on a first come - first serve basis. Join us in paying tribute to some of Wellsville's gifted athletes.
