IRVINGTON, NJ – The Irvington Board of Education approved the following athletes and teams into the Irvington High School Athletic Hall of Fame:

MODERN PLAYER

  • Ramadan Brunson, boys’ basketball, 1990-93

HISTORICAL PLAYER

  • Terence McSherry, football, 1940-44

COACH

  • Marvin Hawkins, track and field/cross-country, 18 seasons

HIGHEST VOTE TOTAL

  • Alshermond Singleton, football, 1990-93

TEAM

  • 1992-93 boys’ basketball team, state champions

In October, the Board of Education approved a resolution to revive IHS Athletic Hall of Fame. It is believed to be the first induction since 1991.

IHS Athletic Director Dr. John Taylor, who took over the position last summer, proposed the idea of reviving the Athletic Hall of Fame. Taylor assembled a committee that selected the induction class through a vote.  Taylor served as the committee chairperson, but did not have any voting power.

The date and location of the induction ceremony will be determined later.

    Many of those classes are already enshrined. They were in the Hall of fame prior to 1991. See athletics website at http://www.irvingtonblueknights.com
