Mike Louisiana and Talia Stewart will be inducted in the James Logan Hall of Fame

The James Logan High School Athletic Hall of Fame will induct a new class of honorees Saturday, Nov. 13, with a 6 p.m. banquet at the Fremont Marriott Silicon Valley.

The inductees include Mike Louisiana (Class of 1966), who went on to win a national collegiate championship in the discus; Gary Alexander(1982), who played baseball in the Philadelphia Phillies and Texas Rangers organizations; Tuineau Alipate (1984), who went on to play pro football for the New York Jets and Minnesota Vikings; Artemio Flores (1994), a state wrestling champion; and Talia Stewart (2004), a three-time state track and field champion. Also being inducted are Coach Will Biggs’ 1985 state-runnerup boys basketball team, and Sam and Gilda Cavallaro, arguably the athletic department’s biggest boosters for more than 30 years.
