The National Scholastic Athletics Foundation (NSAF) has been thrilled to establish the National High School Track & Field Hall of Fame, recognizing the greatest in the storied history of the sport from the early 20th century to the present day. The mission of the National High School Track & Field Hall of Fame is to honor and celebrate the accomplishments, contributions, and character of high school track and field’s finest student athletes, coaches and contributors.

Each of these four classes of candidates — 2018, 2019, 2020 and the new Class of 2021 — were selected by a committee of leading historians and experts from the high school track and field community.
