Hall of Fame
Overview
Congratulations to all of the Chicagoland Sports Hall of Famers who have been recognized over the preceding two decades. Your commitment to sports within Chicago is inspiring and we salute you.
Chicagoland Sports Hall of Fame President Charlie Carey issued this statement “We are saddened by the news of the death of Father John Smyth. For over 20 years, Father Smyth was our leader and spiritual compass, first as the President of Maryville Academy and more recently with his Standing Tall Foundation. He leaves a legacy of unparalleled good will due to his dedication to the plight of disadvantaged children and his example as a caring, kind, and charismatic pastor. As one of the founders of the Chicagoland Sports Hall of Fame, he was our champions champion, as a player, coach, and enthusiastic fan. He was a legend at Notre Dame, and a colleague, mentor and personal friend to me for many years. Chicago has lost one of our heroes. God bless you, John. You will be missed.”
