Columbia Falls High School is adding three members to its athletic hall of fame, activities director John Thompson announced.

Highly-decorated 2007 alumni Keith Catt, Amber Lampman and Callie Spencer are being honored for outstanding careers as multi-sport athletes.

A football team captain last fall, Catt earned Northwestern A all-conference and Class A all-state honors as an offensive and defensive lineman following his junior and senior seasons. Catt helped pave the way for running back Josh Wilson's conference rushing title.

The 6-foot-3, 245-pound Catt was also a standout track and field performer, earning Northwestern A all-conference shot put and discus honors his last two seasons, as well as the Mark Robinson Award as a senior. He was a divisional champion in the discus last spring, and took third at state in the shot. Catt placed fifth in the discus at the 2006 Class A state meet.

A three-sport performer, Lampman made her biggest impact on the Wildkats' track and soccer teams.

Lampman was a Northern A all-conference and Class A all-state soccer player last fall, earning team MVP and Best Offensive Player honors. Lampman was a member of Columbia Falls' 2004 Class A state champion team, and made the all-conference second team in 2005.

Lampman was a Class A state champion in the triple jump last spring after taking third in the same event as a junior. She was all-conference in the long jump, triple jump and 4 x 400 relay as both a junior and senior, and in the 4 x 100 relay as a junior. Lampman took third at the state meet in the long jump as a senior, and sixth in the 4 x 400 relay as a sophomore. She was voted the Wildkats' Most Valuable Athlete her last two seasons.

Lampman earned three letters in basketball and won a Coaches Award last winter while helping the Wildkats to a Class A state tournament berth.

A 2007 Army Reserve National Scholar-Athlete Award recipient, Lampman finished her prep career with 10 varsity letters. She was also a 10-time MCA Academic All-State honoree and a 2007 co-Dumay Award winner.

Another three-sport standout, Spencer earned all-conference honors in volleyball, basketball and track

Spencer was a Northwestern A all-conference second team selection in volleyball last fall. She was also the Wildkats' MVP and a team captain.

Spencer made her greatest mark on the basketball court as a Northwestern A all-conference and Class A all-state first team selection last winter. She was Columbia Falls' MVP and a team captain as a senior. Spencer won the Wildkat Award as a junior while garnering second-team all-conference honors.

Spencer took second and third in the pole vault at divisionals in her junior and senior campaigns, respectively. The 2007 co-Dumay Award winner finished her high school career with nine varsity letters, and was a nine-time MCA Academic all-state recipient.
