The Blue & Gold Banquet celebrating this year's inductions will take place on Saturday, Nov. 14, in the Jesuit Dallas Terry Center. Table sponsorships and tickets go on sale soon.

This year's inductees:

Brendan Feehery '16
One of the most decorated swimmers in Jesuit's storied program history, Brendan Feehery was a seven-time NISCA/Speedo All-American and two-time individual state champion in the 200 IM at the UIL Swimming & Diving Championships. Qualifying for three individual events at the 2016 United States Olympic Trials, Feehery led the Rangers to back-to-back district titles and a pair of top 10 team finishes at the state meet.

Feehery established school records in the 100 breast, 500 free, 200 and 400 free relay during his time at Jesuit, while his record of 56.18 in the 100 breast still stands. During his sophomore year, he earned a bronze medal at the state championships in the 100 back and helped propel the Rangers to eighth overall in the team standings. The next season, he cemented his legacy in Jesuit lore by becoming just the second swimmer and fifth individual in any sport to win a state title. Anchoring the Rangers' third-place finish in the 200 free relay and claiming fourth overall in the 100 breast, Feehery dropped two seconds from his seed time in the 200 IM en route to recording the seventh-fastest time in state history and capturing the 5A crown (1:47.60). His stunning performance, which was fueled by an electric back half, resulted in Jesuit finishing a program-best fifth overall at the UIL Swimming & Diving Championships. 

Winning four titles, Feehery paced Jesuit to the 2016 District 9-6A Championship before providing all of the points in Jesuit's 16th-place finish at state. He finished runner-up in the 100 breast while adding his second straight state title in the 200 IM. After the season, Feehery participated in the U.S. Olympics Trials, where he qualified in the 400 IM, 100 back, and 200 back. A team captain as a senior, Feehery attended University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill on a swimming scholarship and was named to the ACC Academic Honor Roll and CSCAA Scholar All-America Honorable Mention after the 2016-17 and 2017-18 seasons.

Hayden Meshell '13
The Jesuit Dallas hockey team has rapidly emerged as one of the top teams in Texas, winning eight of its 10 state titles over the past 13 years. The Rangers' ascension as one of the state's elite programs, which has included a pair of USA Hockey National Quarterfinal appearances, began as forward Hayden Meshell laid the foundation with a dazzling career that first propelled Jesuit Dallas into the national spotlight. 

Starting on the right side of Jesuit's top line, Meshell was the driving force behind the Rangers' historic 2013 season that ended with a program record for wins (24-2-1), the Texas Amateur Hockey Association (TAHA) State Championship, and Jesuit's first invitation to the USA Hockey High School National Championships. One season after helping to guide the Dallas Oilers to the USA Hockey 18U Tier II National Championship, Meshell paced the Rangers by scoring 33 goals and adding 26 assists and delivered a multi-point performance in the title game as Jesuit upended two-time defending state champion Plano West, 4-2. He was named the AT&T Metroplex League High School Offensive Player of the Year at the conclusion of the season.

A three-time AT&T Metroplex Texas All-Star, Meshell lit the lamp 92 times and added 57 assists during his Jesuit career. Finishing his career with 149 points, he still holds the school records for most career points and goals. Meshell retired as a player after enrolling at the University of Arkansas but is now a USA Hockey certified coach.

JM Priddy '16
The first three-time US Lacrosse All-American in Jesuit history, John Michael (JM) Priddy helped lead the Rangers to the program's first Texas High School Lacrosse League (THSLL) State Championship title and ignited a run that has seen Jesuit Dallas consistently ranked among the top teams in the U.S. southern region. 

A four-year defensive starter and senior team captain, Priddy led the team in ground balls all four seasons donning the Blue & Gold, including a program-best 92 ground balls in 2016 while also totaling 11 points on seven goals and four assists. His outstanding play anchoring Jesuit's defense resulted in a 54-15 overall record and .782 winning percentage during the games in which he appeared.
In 2016, Priddy was at the center of what was then the best season in team history. Pacing the Rangers to a 17-2 overall record and a No. 2 ranking in the LaxPower South Region final polls, Priddy was a dominant force as Jesuit toppled top-ranked and defending state champs Highland Park, 9-4, in the Division I title game. Afterwards, Priddy was named the 2016 Texas High School Lacrosse League (THSLL) State Championship Defensive MVP.

Priddy received an athletic scholarship to the University of Michigan and scored his first career goal in the Wolverines' win against nationally ranked No. 10 Penn early in his freshman season. Although injuries curbed Priddy's collegiate impact, he was named to the Big Ten Preseason Player to Watch List in 2018 and 2019, and in 2019 was named Academic All-Big Ten.

Dalton Walters '16
A rising star on the U.S. Olympic Development Team, Dalton Walters was part of four consecutive Texas High School Cycling League (THSCL) State Championship teams and was a member of a squad that was named the 2013-14 USA Cycling Team of the Year. A two-time individual high school state champion, Walters competed in the 2016 USA MU19 Cycling Amateur Road Nationals, finishing 86th in the road race and 57th in criterium. 

Racing for national power Colorado Mesa University, Walters posted four top-five finishes at the College Track National Championships, including a second-place national finish in 2019. In 2020, he helped lead CMU to the 2020 omnium title as the top collegiate cycling program in the country. Walters was invited to be part of the U.S. Olympic Development Program for Track in early 2020, and in 2022, competed for Team USA in the Pan American Track Cycling Championships. That experience jumpstarted an awards-filled career that continues today as Walters takes aim at the 2028 Olympic Games.

Earning two gold medals at the 2023 USA Cycling Elite National Championships, including an individual title in the men's keirin, Walters was part of a team that won gold in the team sprint at the 2024 USA Cycling Elite & Para Cycling Track National Championships before adding a staggering eight national titles over the past two years. Walters finished first at nationals in the men's sprint, the men's kilometer time trial, the men's keirin, and men's team sprint events in 2025, and then repeated a sweep of those events in summer 2026. Finishing second overall by nine one-hundredths of a second in the 1K time trial at the 2026 Pan American Track Cycling Championships, Walters competed for the first time in the Union Cycliste Internationale (UCI) World Cup in spring 2026, finishing 16th overall against the top sprinters in the world and 21st overall in the keirin.
