Below is a release from Mansfield Public Schools announcing the Mansfield High School All Sports Hall of Fame fall 2024 inductees. The class is highlighted by longtime field hockey coach Theresa Nyhan, who retired following last season, as well as three first-ballot inductees: Jimmy Murphy (2013 HockomockSports Best XI), Kyle Wisnieski (2013 HockomockSports Player of the Year), and Rocky DeAndrade (2014 HockomockSports Player of the Year).

MANSFIELD — Superintendent Teresa Murphy, the Mansfield Hall of Fame Committee and the Mansfield High School Athletic Department are pleased to announce the Mansfield High School All Sports Hall of Fame fall 2024 inductees.

The fall induction class features 14 outstanding student-athletes from boys and girls basketball, field hockey, boys and girls soccer, golf, football, track and field and gymnastics.

This year’s honorees will be celebrated during an induction banquet on Saturday, Nov. 9, at the Chateau Restaurant in Norton. A reception will begin at 4:30 p.m., with the ceremony at 5:30 p.m. Anyone is welcome to attend, including family and friends of the inductees, former coaches, teammates and alumni. To purchase tickets for the fall 2024 induction ceremony, visit this link.

Highlighting this fall’s inductees is Theresa Nyhan, a longtime coach and teacher at Mansfield High School who will be inducted for softball and as a coach for the field hockey program. Nyhan will become just the third female athlete inducted into the Hall of Fame in three different sports. Nyhan was previously inducted into the Hall of Fame as an athlete in basketball and field hockey.

Meg Carroll, a 2012 graduate of Mansfield High School, will also be a dual inductee this fall as she’s honored for her field and ice hockey accomplishments.

The fall class includes two siblings, Ben and Tom Grant, who are being inducted into the Hall of Fame for golf. The class also includes three first-ballot inductees who became eligible this year: Jimmy Murphy, boys soccer; Kyle Wisnieski, football; and Rocky DeAndrade, boys basketball.

“We look forward to celebrating these outstanding inductees at our fall banquet,” said Mansfield High School Assistant Athletic Director Michael Redding. “This group includes some of Mansfield’s most extraordinary student-athletes from 1980 to 2014, many of whom went on to compete successfully at the collegiate level.”

The fall 2024 inductees are Tom Grant (Class of 2010, golf); Ben Grant (Class of 2007, golf); Leslie (Mastone) Keady (Class of 1995, field hockey); Meg Carroll (Class of 2012, field hockey and ice hockey); Theresa Nyhan (Class of 1983, field hockey coach and softball); Jimmy Murphy (Class of 2014, boys soccer); Ashley (Baker) Fortune (Class of 2003, girls soccer); Laura Angers (Class of 2007, gymnastics); Shawn Doherty (Class of 2010, football); Ben Selchan (Class of 1998, football); Kyle Wisnieski (Class of 2014, football); Hilary Crook (Class of 2006, track and field); Rocky DeAndrade (Class of 2014, boys basketball); and Colleen Hooper (Class of 2010, girls basketball).

These new inductees into the Mansfield High School All Sports Hall of Fame were often team MVPs, Hockomock League All-Stars, Boston Globe and Boston Herald All-Scholastics, team captains, record holders and members of championship teams.

“These student-athletes performed at the highest level and represented Mansfield with class and pride,” said Superintendent Murphy. “We are so excited for their return home to Mansfield for the fall induction ceremony.”

The Mansfield Hall of Fame Committee is seeking sponsors for the banquet. If you want to become a gold, silver or bronze sponsor to help defray the event’s administrative costs, click here.
