If you’re a local sports fan, you’ve probably heard about the Shawnee County Sports Hall of Fame (SCSHOF). What you might not know though is that the plaques honoring all the inductees since the creation of the SCSHOF are permanently on display here at the library. Created by the Topeka Shawnee County Sports Council to honor a legacy of outstanding performance by athletes, coaches, administrators, and sports writers and broadcasters with Shawnee County ties, the Hall of Fame inducted its first class in 2006.
