About the Hall

The MHSCA Hall of Fame is truly a HALL of Fame. It features a gigantic wall mural which features athletes and coaches in competition. Also, instead of the wall plaques, the new Hall of Fame also features a computer kiosk on which will be pictures of about 800 inductees of the of the Hall. The members can be looked up by name, their year of induction and their community or school. 
The MHSCA Hall of Fame is located in a hallway of the Student Activities Center (CAC) located on the campus of Central Michigan University. People who wish to see the hall may access it through the “old” Rose Arena Complex or the SAC entrance.
