One of the longest tenured coaches in Judson athletic history is former men's basketball coach Jim Wallis. He coached the men's basketball team from 1984-1993. He has 114 career wins which is the most of any men's basketball coach in program history. He coached five NCCAA All-Americans in his nine years. He had his best year in 1989-90 with a 17-12 record, while winning the NIIC Conference championship. But beyond wins and losses and honors, it's the positive influence that Wallis had on so many men that earns him his Hall of Fame recognition. He coached over 100 players during his time at Judson and it's the lessons that he taught them outside of basketball that have led to many of them going on to be successful teachers, coaches, businessmen, pastors, husbands and fathers. Wallis would go on to work in District 300 for 19 years including being the assistant principal and athletic director of Hampshire High School for 12 years and principal of Hampshire Middle School for seven years.
