Welcome to the Maryland State Athletic Hall of FameFounded in 1956, under the sponsorship of the M Club Foundation the Maryland State Athletic Hall of Fame inducted its first class of “all-stars,” which included the first modern Olympic champion in discus throw and shot put, Robert Garrett, and baseball greats Babe Ruth, Jimmie Foxx, and Frank “Home Run” Baker. Ever since, this list of native-born and more recently adopted Maryland sons and daughters - some of the region’s greatest athletes - has grown. Read full history. Our mission is to celebrate Marylanders’ outstanding athletic accomplishments and promote the ideals as well as the traditions of Maryland athletics and its athletes.Congratulations to our class of 2023 inductees!

Remembering former Orioles owner, Peter Angelos who died at 94. As we embark on 70 years of Orioles baseball in Baltimore, it's important to recall that Mr. Angelos kept the Orioles here when he bought the team in 1993 for $173 million. At the time, it was the highest price ever paid for a franchise. (Mar. 23, 2024)
