Not all of the truly outstanding contributions to Greeley/Greeley Central High’s athletic history belong to just ‘Cats teams, players, and coaches. Some have been made by incredibly dedicated and talented people who have supported Wildcat athletics in other ways. Tonight’s final 2025 inductee never wore the orange and black, but his contributions to the legacy of Wildcat athletics merit recognition and appreciation.

This notable Greeleyite worked tirelessly for 25-years to share details about and tell the stories of all Wildcat athletic teams, their players, coaches, and supporters. In a time before the internet, computers, or television coverage of high school sports, he did his job so well that people in Greeley came to rely on his accounts to stay connected to GHS athletics. 📸📝

On May 12th, the GCHS Athletic Hall of Fame will announce its Class of 2025 inductees.

This 1996 ‘Cat student-athlete is perhaps the most well-rounded four-sport women’s player to ever wear the orange and black.

She was a regional and state champion in tennis, as well as All-Northern first team in volleyball, and a fierce competitor at the guard position in basketball.

In the spring of 1996, she finished her Wildcat career on the soccer pitch, and also won Gold G awards for leadership and academics.

On May 12th, the GCHS Athletic Hall of Fame will announce its Class of 2025 inductees.

This 1967 graduate helped lead Coach Dale Thompson’s Wildcat hoopsters to back-to-back undefeated Northern Conference seasons. He was All-Conference and All-State his junior senior years, as well as All-American his senior year.

Our Wildcat was also an All-Conference pitcher for Coach Pete D’Amato his senior year.

After playing for and graduating from the Air Force Academy, he flew combat missions in both the Vietnam War and the First Gulf War.

On May 12th, the GCHS Athletic Hall of Fame will announce its Class of 2025 inductees.

100 years ago, tonight’s inductee was instrumental in Greeley High School’s state football championship of 1924, and the Cats’ 1925 state basketball championship.

This Wildcat was all-state in football and basketball, and went on to star in three sports for the Bears at Colorado Teacher’s College (now the University of Northern Colorado).

Can you name this renowned Wildcat? 🏀🏈🟧⬛️

Today's highlight from the HOF class of 2023 (GHS class of 1956) is Larry Hoffner.

Larry Hoffner is perhaps one of the most physically-gifted Wildcat basketball players ever. He was All-Northern Conference and All-State in both basketball and football during his high school career. In 1956, Hoffner led a talented Wildcat squad to GHS's first state basketball title since 1925, and was chosen All-American the same year.

At Colorado A&M (now CSU), Hoffner was named All-Conference in both his junior and senior years. He was inducted into the CSU Sports Hall of Fame in 2002.

Today's highlight from the HOF class of 2023 (GCHS class of 1980) is Konnie Mackey.

Konnie Mackey-Jelden from Greeley Central High class of 1980, is perhaps the greatest three-sport women’s athlete to ever don the orange and black. Excelling at gymnastics, basketball and track, Mackey set 16 school records (10 track, 6 basketball), won several state titles, set a state record, and was named All-American. She went on to become an All-American track athlete at Colorado State University.
