2026 Hall of Fame Inductees
Terry McGinnis
As a youngster, Terry played for St. Lawrence, Robbees, Federal Color and Bentley Post. A 1970 graduate of Elder, he was a pitcher and 3rd baseman for Coach Jim Massa batting over .330 in both his junior and senior years. As a pitcher, Terry posted a 5-1 record in his final year for the Panthers. Post high school, he played with Cheviot Tri-State for 5 years.
Terry was offered a scholarship to Marshall University but wound up enrolling at UC. College plans changed when he began volunteering at St. Joseph Orphanage where he found a passion for working with disabled children. While chaperoning a youth club trip, Terry met Jane Gilfilen, fell in love and moved to Wilmington, Ohio. In 1978, he became the proud owner of the Wallingford Store, which he transformed into Terry’s Grocery and Pizza, a cornerstone of the community that he faithfully operated for 46 years. For three decades, Terry donated over $500,000 to Lynchburg Clay High School Athletics. He also financed any ball player that wanted to further their athletic career in AAU baseball and basketball.
He gave generously of his time and energy, always finding ways to support others. Whether through his involvement with the Lynchburg-Clay Boosters and Fayetteville Boosters, or by simply lending a helping hand. Terry’s impact on those around him was deep and lasting. He passed away on June 4, 2025 leaving his wife of 49 years, 5 children, 18 grandchildren and 5 siblings.

In that time, Scott received the LaRosa Sports Recognition Award, played in the East/West All Star Game, was Conference Player of the Year and All City. A second baseman, he was 42 for 42 in stolen bases and averaged .473. Scott was Oak Hills MVP as well as Best Defensive Player his senior season.
Playing for Ohio Dominican, Scott’s accolades included All Conference, All District and All Region. He was also Conference Player of the Week multiple times for the nationally ranked ODU Panthers. After college, he played for the Cheviot Baseball Club. As a coach, Scott led several JB Yeager teams along with stops at Purcell Marian, Northwest, LaSalle and Oak Hills.
Scott and wife Dana got married in 2004 years and have one son, Connor.
Bill Wegman
Bill starred on the Oak Hills High School diamond for Coach Pat Quinn, playing a pivotal part in both the 1980 State Champion and the 1981 State Runner-Up Baseball teams. He also played 3 years for Budde Post. Chosen in the 5th round of the 1981 Major League Baseball Draft by the Milwaukee Brewers, Bill spent his entire 14-year career pitching for the team that picked him.
While in the Minor Leagues, Bill received the Brewers Minor League Player of the Year Award. In his best season of 1991, Bill won his team’s Most Valuable Pitcher Award as well as the MLB Hutch Award. This award honors former Reds manager Fred Hutchinson and is given annually to a player who best exemplifies the fighting spirit and competitive desire of Hutch. It is more commonly known as the “Comeback Player of the Year Award”. His stats for the season were 15-7 with a 2.84 ERA. Bill was an inaugural member of the Brewers Wall of Honor.
He’s been married to the former Kim Santa for 42 years; they have two daughters and 8 grandchildren.
Rodney “Gene” Ziegler
Gene was quite the athlete at Harrison High School. Not only was he a star in baseball but he garnered All-League status in football and led the basketball team in assists! For the Wildcat baseball squad, Gene was 3-time All-League, 2-time MVP and during his senior year of 1970 led the team in hits, runs scored and stolen bases. That year he was the top hitter in Greater Cincinnati with a .561 batting average. In his spare time, he posted a 7-1 pitching record with a 1.21 ERA.
All of this success earned him a scholarship to Miami University where he continued to achieve great things. Gene was one of the best players in Miami Baseball history. He was a three-time All-MAC selection and his career .342 batting average (including hitting over .300 all four seasons and leading the MAC as a freshman at .382) ranks in Miami's top 15. During his college career, Gene also held records for stolen bases, runs, doubles and walks. A quintessential leadoff hitter, Gene "set the table" for his teammates with 181 hits, 101 walks and 51 stolen bases, while incredibly striking out only 35 times in his 530 at-bats.
Gene passed away in November 2025 leaving his wife of 50 years, Molly, their five children and 18 grandchildren.
