2025 Hall of Fame Class (Graduating Year)
Blake Borrett, Football & Swimming (2005)
Blake Borrett, Class of 2005, was an exceptional two-sport athlete during his Kohawk career. An all-conference performer in both football and swimming, Blake ranks second in career tackles on the football field and held seven school records in swimming at graduation. In swimming, he earned 12 all-conference honors, winning four championship events in 2004 and five in 20005. As a standout linebacker in football, he helped the team secure an NCAA Playoff appearance in 2002, earning second-team all-conference honors. He was later named first-team all-conference in 2004 and received second-team all-region recognition as Coe shared the league title. Blake still ranks third in total tackles and holds top-ten spots in multiple swimming events, including the 50 Freestyle, 100 Freestyle, 100 Breaststroke, 200 Medley Relay, 200 Free Relay, 400 Free Relay, and 800 Free Relay.
 
Chad Kramer, Baseball (2006)
Chad Kramer, Class of 2006, made history as the first Coe Baseball All-American in nearly 30 years, culminating his remarkable career with a third-team All-American selection in 2006. He appears 31 times in the Kohawk baseball record book, where he ranks second in career RBIs (144) and doubles (44), third in batting average (.375), fifth in hits (208), eighth in runs (123), and tenth in home runs (17).

Andrea Schupbach Schmit, Tennis (2010)
Andrea Schupbach Schmit, Class of 2010, stands out as one of only two female All-American tennis players in Coe College's storied history. Alongside Kohawk Hall of Famer Molly Fiala Garber, Schupbach achieved a remarkable fourth-place finish at the NCAA DIII Doubles Championships in 2009, marking the duo as the program's sole All-Americans. Throughout her career, she contributed to three IIAC championship teams and secured the individual IIAC Flight A Doubles title in both 2008 and 2010, the latter of which she won with her sister, Michelle Schupbach. Andrea continues to rank among the top 10 in all major statistical categories at Coe, holding the fifth position for total career wins (159) and individual doubles wins (84), while ranking seventh in career singles wins (75).
 
Kayla Waskow, Basketball (2013)
Kayla Waskow, Class of 2013, played a pivotal role in shaping one of the successful eras in Coe College women's basketball history. A standout athlete, she earned first-team All-IIAC honors four times and graduated as the program's all-time leader in points (1,538) and rebounds (695), while also ranking sixth in assists (318). Kayla was recognized as the IIAC MVP in the 2011-12 season, leading the Kohawks to an impressive 21-8 overall record and a second-place finish in the league. She was instrumental in two NCAA Tournament appearances, guiding Coe to its only postseason victories in the program's history. Notably, she was a key member of the 2011 Sweet 16 team that triumphed over Minnesota-Morris and Howard Payne, and she helped secure a first-round victory against UW-River Falls in 2012. Kayla currently serves as the head coach of the women's basketball program, continuing her legacy and impact on the sport at Coe.
