The National Sporting Clays Association is proud to announce that Mike Wilgus and Dee Orr have been selected for induction into the NSCA Hall of Fame in 2026. Both will be formally honored this October during the National Championship.
Wilgus, recognized in the Shooter category, has built one of the most accomplished competitive resumes in sporting clays. A 28-year NSCA member, he is the 2025 National Sporting Clays Champion, a two-time US Open Champion, and a 10-time member of USA Sporting Clays/FITASC Teams. His consistency at the highest level is reflected in his earning 19 Krieghoff All-American Team positions and numerous regional and state titles.
Beyond his titles, Wilgus has demonstrated remarkable longevity and leadership in the sport in his decades of national-level competition. His achievements and sportsmanship have made him a respected figure among peers and a standard-bearer for excellence in sporting clays.
Orr will be inducted as the recipient of the Hal duPont Service Award, recognizing her extraordinary contributions to the growth and development of the sport. While an accomplished competitor in her own right — including 27 All-American Team selections, a USA Sporting Clays Ladies Team Gold Medal, and multiple national and international titles — her lasting impact comes through service.
As a driving force behind the FSCA Honeybelles, Orr has helped introduce hundreds of women to sporting clays through ladies-only clinics and events across Florida. She has organized major shoots, launched a women’s league, and worked tirelessly to create a welcoming and supportive environment for new shooters.
In addition to her work with the Honeybelles, Orr serves as a FITASC referee, SCTP coach, and FSCA Vice President, further demonstrating her commitment to the sport at every level.
Together, Wilgus and Orr represent the very best of the NSCA — elite performance, enduring dedication, and a passion for growing the sport. Their induction into the Hall of Fame recognizes not only their individual achievements, but also their lasting contributions to the sporting clays community.
