Welcome.

On behalf of the Portland Public Schools Athletic Hall of Fame Association’s Board of Directors, I would like to welcome you to the 28th PIL Hall of Fame Induction Banquet. We are here to recognize the outstanding achievements of past PIL Athletes, Coaches and Administrators, as well as to help perpetuate the storied history and tradition of this great league.

The mission of the Portland Public Schools Athletic Hall of Fame Association is to recognize the accomplishments of great Athletes, Coaches and Administrators of the past, as well as to honor the achievements of current Athletes, Coaches and Administrators. In so doing, the PIL Hall of Fame has become a visible support group for the Portland Interscholastic League.

During the past year, the Association, which consists of a 36-member Board of Directors, has sponsored the PIL Hall of Fame Induction Banquet, the PIL Hall of Fame Mel Krause Memorial Golf Tournament in September at Broadmoor Golf Club, and the “Celebration of Champions” Awards Ceremony in May at the Tiger Woods Center at Nike’s World Headquarters. The Association also has secured a sponsorship from The Harold and Margaret Taylor Foundation. Funds received from this sponsor, along with donations and monies from fundraising events, are used to provide financial support for the athletic programs in the 9 PIL High Schools.

The PIL Hall of Fame will continue to reach out for additional sponsorships, enhance its Golf Tournament and solicit the support of more former PIL Athletes as it strives to assist the 6,000-plus Student-Athletes in the Portland Interscholastic League.

Congratulations to the Induction Class of 2015 and thank you to all of those in attendance for making this event one that we will all remember.

Welcome.

On behalf of the Portland Public Schools Athletic Hall of Fame Association’s Board of Directors, I would like to welcome you to the 28th PIL Hall of Fame Induction Banquet. We are here to recognize the outstanding achievements of past PIL Athletes, Coaches and Administrators, as well as to help perpetuate the storied history and tradition of this great league.

The mission of the Portland Public Schools Athletic Hall of Fame Association is to recognize the accomplishments of great Athletes, Coaches and Administrators of the past, as well as to honor the achievements of current Athletes, Coaches and Administrators. In so doing, the PIL Hall of Fame has become a visible support group for the Portland Interscholastic League.

During the past year, the Association, which consists of a 36-member Board of Directors, has sponsored the PIL Hall of Fame Induction Banquet, the PIL Hall of Fame Mel Krause Memorial Golf Tournament in September at Broadmoor Golf Club, and the “Celebration of Champions” Awards Ceremony in May at the Tiger Woods Center at Nike’s World Headquarters. The Association also has secured a sponsorship from The Harold and Margaret Taylor Foundation. Funds received from this sponsor, along with donations and monies from fundraising events, are used to provide financial support for the athletic programs in the 9 PIL High Schools.

The PIL Hall of Fame will continue to reach out for additional sponsorships, enhance its Golf Tournament and solicit the support of more former PIL Athletes as it strives to assist the 6,000-plus Student-Athletes in the Portland Interscholastic League.

Congratulations to the Induction Class of 2015 and thank you to all of those in attendance for making this event one that we will all remember.
