On behalf of all past and present players of the WHL, we are extremely proud to congratulate Lorie Springall and Sharon Buehner on their induction to the Sault Ste. Marie Hockey Hall of Fame. Lorie and Sharon have made outstanding contributions to the hockey community, the city of Sault Ste Marie and most significantly, to us, the players. We are thrilled to see their hard work, dedication and commitment recognized.
A ceremony was held on February 23, 2020 to honour all inductees. Lorie and Sharon, the only females in the Hockey Hall of Fame, were recognized in the Builder Category.
In 2001 they had a dream and what they have built is incredible. Due to their love of the game, many friendships have been formed and lifelong memories have been made. We have all developed and learned so much as a result of their leadership and guidance. They have the changed the lives of many women.
Lorie, Sharon - Thank you for all you do. We are grateful.
