West Potomac High School Athletic Hall of Fame
The West Potomac High School Hall of Fame honors the legacy of outstanding alumni athletes, coaches, and dedicated contributors who brought pride to our school and community. Eligible nominees include former athletes, coaches, and administrators or volunteers who have made significant impacts on our sports programs. To recognize these exceptional individuals, the Hall of Fame currently features plaques outside the main gym, with plans to enhance this tribute through a digital display and virtual Hall of Fame for easy, online access. This initiative celebrates the accomplishments and dedication of those who exemplify West Potomac’s tradition of excellence in athletics. 2024 Inductees
