State Champions, All-Americans, All-State Selections, and numerous other accolades have been awarded to individuals and teams representing our community over the years. At Monett, we have a large number of players, coaches, and contributors that have been a part of our great athletic tradition. These individuals and teams have been a great source of pride for the community over the years.
Ty Goetz, Monett District Athletic Director, and Michael Calhoun, Monett Assistant Athletic Director, oversee the Monett R-1 Athletics Hall of Fame. This prestigious recognition honors individuals who have made a significant impact on Monett athletics. The selection process follows a structured method established by the district to ensure fairness and excellence. The Hall of Fame initiative was officially presented to the Board of Education in December 2019.
The committee is made up of school officials and community members. They will be selecting the Hall of Fame Class of 2025. The nominations will be limited to five athletes, two coaches, and one contributor.
The eligibility requirements are:
Athlete nominee must be graduated for 15 years before nomination
Coach nominee must have ended coaching responsibilities for three years
Contributors are allowed to be nominated at any time
Once nominees are selected, they will be notified of their induction. They will be honored in the fall at a special celebratory dinner. During the halftime of a home football game, they will also be recognized and presented with a plaque and ring to commemorate their achievements.
The Monett School District is thrilled about the opportunity to officially recognize exceptional people and teams.
To nominate, follow the links below. The nomination process will close on April 1.
