CHARLESTON, S.C. – The 2019 Citadel Hall of Fame will induct five new members at the annual Hall of Fame Banquet on Sept. 20. The banquet will be held at the Charleston Marriott (1700 Lockwood Drive). The reception will begin at 6 p.m. with the program starting at 6:45 p.m.
 
As we approach the event, we will take a closer look at each inductee. Next up is honorary inductee Wade St. John.
 
Wade St. John, Honorary, Class of 1964
A former quarterback who was a part of the school's first Southern Conference championship, Wade St. John enters the Hall of Fame as an honorary member. As the starting quarterback in 1963, St. John helped lead wide receiver Vince Petno to All-America honors.
 
St. John is still very active at The Citadel as he is the only former athlete to be included in the prestigious Society of 1842, an honor bestowed on those who have donated over $1 million. He is also a member of The Citadel Brigadier Foundation Chairman's Club and Order of the Tartan. He teamed up with John McAleer to help lead the efforts to fully endow the Tangerine Bowl Team Scholarship, one of only four TCBF endowed scholarships.
