Seventy members of the Mustang Hall of Fame
attended the event, reminiscing with other Hall
of Famers about their Mustang glory days and
celebrating the HoF’s contribution of tens of
thousands of dollars to honor and support MHS
athletes and teams. HoF members represented MHS
athletic teams and graduating classes from the
1940s to the 2000s. In total, about 120 HoF
members and guests filled the lobby of Medford
High School for the event.
Guest speakers included Medford High
School Headmaster Dr. John Perella and Mayor of
Medford Michael McGlynn. Mayor McGlynn presented
a “Key to the City” to Reggie Graham, HoF Board
Director and 25th Anniversary Celebration event
chairman. The Key recognized the Medford Mustang
Hall of Fame on its achievements and
contributions for the past 25 years.
Dave McGillivray, MHS Class of 1973 and the Race
Director for the BAA Boston Marathon for the
past 27 years, delivered the keynote address.
McGillivray described the challenges of the 2013
Boston Marathon bombings and the preparations
for the 2014 Boston Marathon. He also recognized
the talent and accomplishments of the MHS
athletes in the Hall of Fame, many of whom he
said were his “heroes” growing up in Medford.
McGillivray ran the 2014Boston Marathon in
support of the “Martin W. Richard Charitable
Foundation.” Richard was one of the victims
killed in the 2013 Marathon bombings.

Also during the afternoon, MHS Girls Softball
team members escorted attendees to the Hall of
Fame “Showcase” near the MHS gym. The Showcase
displays plaques that list all of the HoF
members’ names and pictures from the 2012 HoF
induction ceremony, plus other MHS sports
memorabilia. For many HoF members, this was
their first chance to see their names in the
Showcase.

New Showcase
The Mustang Hall of Fame is pleased to announce
that we have recently completed the installation
of our new showcases at MHS.
The showcases are
located outside the entrance to the gymnasium
and their placement ensures that the HOF will
have a permanent home in a location that all
future hall of famers will have access to.
