Avon HS Sports Hall Of Fame Seeks Nominees For 2025

Avon Falcons Athletics Hall of Fame

AVON, CT — The 2024 class of the Avon Falcons Athletics Hall of Fame was inducted in a ceremony last May at the Golf Club of Avon – and plans are now underway for the 2025 class.

Applications are open for the 2025 class of athletes, teams, coaches, and contributors to be considered by the Hall of Fame selection committee.

Members of the public can nominate their favorite Avon Falcon via the nomination form on the Hall of Fame’s website.

The deadline for nominations is Jan. 15, 2025.

Individual athletes must have graduated from Avon High at least 10 years ago to qualify for nomination.

Athletic teams will be considered 10 years after the respective winning season for which they are being nominated, and coaches will be considered if they have coached at Avon High for at least five years.

Nominations of men and women who are program "contributors" (e.g. athletic directors, community leaders, and volunteers) are also welcome and will be evaluated based upon their service to and accomplishments within the athletic programs at Avon High School.

All nominations will be thoughtfully reviewed by the Avon Falcons Hall of Fame selection committee, comprised of Lisa Abate, Al D’Adario, Tim Filon, John McLaughlin, Don Papio, Susan Rietano Davey (committee chair), Jon Yolles, Dave Zlatin, and Terri Ziemnicki.

Nominees not chosen for induction this year will remain in consideration for future classes.
