SHS Alumni Donate Piece of Bearcat History
A piece of Bearcat History!

SHS alumni Larry Halliburton and Neblett Elementary teacher Monica Becker (Larry's daughter) have donated the 1932 State Championship Track and Field medals of his great-uncle and Bearcat great Lelmer Reynolds to the Sherman Ex-Students Museum. Reynolds won gold in discus and shot put in 1932 and even broke the shot put record that stood at the time. The entire Sherman High School also took home the gold as a team. Halliburton, a former coach himself, talked with SHS track and field athletes about how the sport has changed and emphasized consistency and dedication in building themselves.

Becker was the one who took care of the medals inside the family after it was handed down from an aunt.

The medals will be hung inside the MAC for a time before moving to the Ex-Students Museum. The Ex-Students Museum is located inside original Dillingham Junior High next to the Sherman ISD Service Center at 2701 N. Loy Lake Road. It is open Wednesdays and Fridays from noon to 3 p.m.
