December 9, 2025 - The Indiana Basketball Hall of Fame announced this morning that Todd Salkoski, a 1976 Cambridge City Lincoln graduate and Ball State University alum, has been selected for induction into the 2026 Women’s Induction Class. Salkoski is widely recognized as one of the most successful and impactful coaches in Shenandoah High School history.

As reported by The Indianapolis Star:  "Salkoski compiled a 232-99 record in 14 seasons with two Class 2A state championships and two Class 2A state runner-up finishes as girls’ basketball coach at Shenandoah. During his tenure, the Raiders captured nine sectional trophies, five regional crowns and four semi-state titles in addition to the state results. He was a standout football and baseball player at Cambridge City Lincoln, earning honorable mention all-state honors as a senior quarterback. Salkoski started his career in education at Morristown as a teacher and coach, going 1-9 as varsity football coach in 1983. He moved to Shenandoah for the 1984-85 school year, posting a 40-32 record from 1985-91 as varsity football coach and 105-48-1 record from 1992-97 as varsity baseball coach. His girls’ basketball teams were 2A state champions in 2003 (at 24-5) and 2005 (at 22-5) as well as 2A state runners-up in 2001 (at 25-1) and 2002 (at 22-4). After stepping down as coach, Salkoski became the Shenandoah athletic director. He now is in his 16th year in that position."

Mr. Salkoski will be formally inducted during the Indiana Basketball Hall of Fame’s Women’s Ceremony on Saturday, April 25, 2026.

Congratulations, Coach!
