Kenneth Hall
Hall Stadium

A 1954 graduate of Sugar Land High School and sports legend, Kenneth Hall holds more rushing records than any other high school running back in the history of Texas high school football. Known as the "Sugar Land Express," Hall set more than 15 state and/or national records during his Sugar Land career. He entered the Gators' Class B football program as a 5-11, 170-pound running back and left a 6-foot-1, 205-pounder with the kind of speed and power that caught the eye of legendary coach Bear Bryant, who signed Hall to a scholarship at Texas A&M. Hall later played football in Canada, as well as with the Colts, Cardinals and the Houston Oilers. Hall is such a sports legend that the prestigious National Player of the Year for high school football, cast in the likeness of Hall in his 1950's uniform, was named the Ken Hall Trophy.
