A committee was formed to draw up the bylaws of the CDH Athletic Hall of Fame and to create a process to solicit nominations and elect each induction class. Hundreds of nominations were received over the past two years. According to Vice President of Advancement, Rob Bollinger, “Cretin-Derham Hall’s Athletic Hall of Fame was spearheaded by our former athletic director, Phil Archer ’99. After 5 years as Athletic Director and a former alum, Archer has brought great insight to the founding principles of the Athletic Hall of Fame. It has been an exciting opportunity to launch this program with him as we honor the past, celebrate the present, and inspire the future of Cretin-Derham Hall athletics.”
