✨ Christopher Currie (Class of 1983) – Currie built an extraordinary 21-year career in the United States Marine Corps, retiring as a Gunnery Sergeant. He spent 17 years in the elite Marine Corps Reconnaissance community and deployed in multiple major operations, including Desert Storm, Enduring Freedom, and Iraqi Freedom. His courage and leadership under fire earned him the Navy and Marine Corps Commendation Medal with Combat Distinguishing Device, among other honors. Currie’s lifelong commitment to service exemplifies the highest ideals of leadership, integrity, and dedication.
✨ 1989 WRHS Football Team – The 1989 Junior Blues completed a perfect 12–0 season and captured the Class 5A state championship in a thrilling 10–8 victory over Salina Central. Led by head coach Ron Bowen, the team’s dominant defense, resilience in close games, and unmatched toughness defined one of the greatest seasons in WRHS football history.
Established in 2003, the WRHS Hall of Fame recognizes graduates and staff who have achieved remarkable accomplishments at the local, state, or national levels.
Please join us in congratulating these outstanding Hall of Famers!
