The award was founded to recognize and celebrate the positive accomplishments and contributions of Eastern Hancock High School alumni. Graduates of Eastern Hancock as well as Charlottesville, Westland, and Wilkinson High Schools are all eligible for consideration.
It is the purpose of the hall of fame to recognize such individuals who have through their performance, conduct, and achievement, brought credit and honor to themselves and Eastern Hancock High School.
