Being inducted into the Covington Athletic Hall of Fame is a prestigious honor and three individuals, plus the 1986 wrestling team were blessed to experience that honor during the 40th annual induction ceremony on Friday at Covington High School. The three individual former athletes who were inducted were 2006 graduate Darin Rhoades, 2013 graduate Casey Yingst-Hernandez and 2015 graduate Ben Miller. All three compiled amazing careers at Covington and left legacies of greatness for future generations to follow.
