A LEGACY OF ACHIEVEMENT IN ATHLETICS AND COMMUNITY
It is the mission of the Scott County Sports Hall of Fame to recognize and honor men and women who have distinguished themselves and gained prominence in amateur and/or professional athletics; who have brought positive recognition to themselves, Scott County,
the State of Mississippi and their own community; and who have met the established eligibility requirements for induction.
About Us
We are excited to have passed our 10 anniversary
of honoring former athletes who participated in their respective sports as student-athletes in Scott County.
We have come a long way since our start in 2014 and created great memories for our inductees and their families.
Our Class Members
We started with 25 inaugural inductees
and now stand at 133 members.
New inductees will be added during the next ceremony
on April 24, 2027, at the Livingston Center
at Roosevelt State Park in Morton

Special Recognition
Throughout its existence, the Hall of Fame has conferred awards that honor and recognize people other than athletes and coaches who have contributed to sports programs in Scott County. We have streamlined that recognition into specific categories which highlight individuals' efforts in a variety of ways.
