Chris (Sally) Wright excelled beyond the norm in two sports, football and basketball in his time at Lisle High School. In football, Chris played four years and was named all-conference in his junior and senior year. After graduating from Lisle, he went on to play football at Augustana College where he was a 3 year all conference player, All-American, and school record holder for receiving TD's in single game (4). It was in basketball, however, where Chris left a significant legacy. He competed in basketball all four years at Lisle and was named all-conference in both his junior and senior year. Also, in his senior year, he was named to the all-tournament teams at both the Thanksgiving and Christmas tournaments. He also competed in and placed 6th in the state in the IHSA Slam Dunk competition. Chris has widely been regarded as one of the best athletes of his era. He is number 18 on the Lisle All Time Points Scored list with 750. He was awarded the Brian Piccolo Award by the Carlin Nalley Foundation. The Piccolo Award is given to outstanding male senior athletes at Lisle High School.
