About the Tampa Catholic Athletic Hall of Fame

Introduction to the Tampa Catholic Athletic Hall of Fame is the highest honor afforded to an athlete. Nominations are solicited from the Tampa Catholic community prior to the event, and the inductees are selected by a committee that includes TC Administrators, Coaches, and Alumni & Retired Staff volunteers.
