The Honolulu Advertiser will be a title sponsor of the Hall for the third straight year. It was previously known as the Nissan Hawai'i High School Hall of Honor.

This year's class will bring the total number of inductees to 324, representing 53 high schools since 1983.

The banquet's keynote speaker will be ESPN SportsCenter anchor Neil Everett, and proceeds from the dinner will go toward the HHSAA Foundation, which helps supplement the costs of 32 state championship events.

Primary consideration was given to athletic achievement, but other factors included academics, character and school/community service.

Leading this year's class is Te'o, who was showered with national awards and recognition last December after helping guide the Buffanblu to their first football state championship.

He is regarded as the most highly recruited college prospect from Hawai'i to date, eventually signing a letter of intent to play for the University of Notre Dame.
