The 2016 inaugural class of the CCISD Athletic Hall of Honor was recognized and celebrated during a special ceremony last Friday at Challenger Columbia Stadium.  The Athletic Hall of Honor was formed this year to recognize the efforts and contributions of former CCISD student athletes, coaches and teams who have brought distinction, honor and excellence to themselves and to the District. Nominations this year were only sought for candidates active or enrolled from 1948 to 1972 and whose athletic career was linked to the former Webster High School or Clear Creek High School.  Each of these legends' names will forever be etched on the home side concourse of this stadium and the second floor of the Challenger Columbia Stadium Fieldhouse. Congratulations to all of our Honorees!
