Lyle Phelps was the Pendleton Buckaroo Baseball Coach from 1976-1994. Coach Phelps’ teams won 8 Intermountain Conference championships and Coach Phelps was the State of Oregon Coach of the Year in 1992 and 1994. This award is presented to the Pendleton High School Varsity Baseball player who most exemplifies his high standards.

Our Pendleton high school athletic memorials can be found in the Buckaroo Hall of Champions (BHC), outside of Warberg Court.  All memorials either recognize outstanding coaches or athletes that have made a tremendous impact on Pendleton High School. Student-athletes at Pendleton High School are chosen annually by their varsity coaches to be recipients of these memorial awards.
