1902 Inter-Hall team
The first all-star team in interhall history was established in late September 1902. The team scheduled a diverse array of high school opponents from Northern Indiana, the season commencing with a game against South Bend High School. By the end of the season the interhall team had compiled a 7–1 record (not including their win by forfeit over Culver) and outscored their opponents by a total of 112 to 6. In a summary of their exploits, the Scholastic reported that the team had defeated the high school football champions of Northern Indiana and Michigan, those being South Bend and Benton Harbor High Schools respectively. The tradition of naming an "all-hall" team was born, although this would become an honorary distinction similar to the all-American selections of the time. There would not be another all-star team created for the purpose of played for over seventy years.
