Currently, the Ring of Honor consists of over 100 jerseys hanging from the rafters of the back rotunda at the Hall of Fame, which opened in 1999. The display includes jerseys of the top high school and college players from the previous season. By acknowledging these young athletes, the Hall of Fame can fulfill its mission to “honor the past, celebrate the present and promote the future” of women’s basketball. The Ring of Honor has displayed jerseys from the best players in the world including Candace Parker, Sue Bird, Kelsey Plum, Breanna Stewart and Aja Wilson.

“St. Johns is extremely proud of Taliah’s accomplishments as a Spartan,” said St. Johns Country Day School’s Director of Athletics John Sgromolo. “Our goal at St. Johns is to provide a world-class student-athlete experience; and, through Taliah’s hard work and determination, she has demonstrated that St. Johns environment is not only conducive to academic excellence but also to athletic excellence at the highest level.”
