Hall of Fame
Despite initially playing football exclusively, Terry Hendrix (1979-82) became one of Southern Oregon’s most successful two-sport athletes and owns two of the four longest-standing records in Raider track and field history. For the Raider football team, Hendrix was a defensive back, a running back and a return specialist, and his 38 career punt returns are still the third-most for a Raider. As a sophomore, however, he took to the track and in 1982 he established benchmarks that have survived the last 33 years for the 100 meters (10.54 seconds) and 200 meters (21.18). That year he became a regional champion in the 100 and an NAIA All-American in the 200 – the Raiders’ first ever in the event. There hasn’t been one since.
