RMA Sports Hall of Fame

Riverside's athletic heritage is one of outstanding individual and team successes. To recognize this part of our heritage during our centennial celebrations in 2007, we created the Riverside Military Academy Sports Hall of Fame. The first members of our Sports Hall of Fame were inducted on Oct. 13, 2007, as part of our homecoming festivities.
