Blue Springs’ Donohoe, Chiefs’ Carson, Royals’ Suppan join Missouri Sports Hall of Fame

It has been an eventful few months for Kelly Donohoe, to say the least.

In late August, the head football coach for Blue Springs High School received the life-changing news of a cancer diagnosis, and then dealt with treatment, which caused him to miss a playoff game against Rockhurst in early November 2018.

More recently, Donohoe received much more positive news.

The first phone call he received came from the Missouri Sports Hall of Fame, which is headquartered in Springfield. Donohoe said he thought it was regarding payment for an ad the school had placed for one of its basketball coaches who had been inducted, but that wasn’t the case.
