Barnes, Bergeron, Ditote, Harnish and Steele join Indiana Football Hall of Fame
FORT WAYNE, Ind. (WPTA) – Five more football stars from Northeast Indiana joined the Indiana Football Hall of Fame on Monday evening.
The Indiana Football Coaches Association hosted another induction dinner at the Goeglein’s Banquet Hall in Fort Wayne, celebrating the class of 2024.
That group included Roosevelt Barnes, Bob Bergeron, Chris Dittoe, Chandler Harnish, and Glen Steele.
Barnes (who was unable to attend) was a multi-sport star at Wayne and Purdue, before getting picked by the Lions in the 10th round of the 1982 NFL Draft. He played several years in the NFL before becoming a pro agent.
Bergeron played as a kicker at Bishop Luers and Michigan. He would spend most of his football career as a coach, serving as a longtime assistant at Snider.
Dittoe suited up at quarterback for Bishop Dwenger and Indiana. He played for the Detroit Lions, and in NFL Europe.
Harnish also played quarterback, becoming one of the best players in Norwell and Northern Illinois history. He joined the Colts as “Mr. Irrelevant,” the final player selected in the 2012 NFL Draft (round seven, pick 253). He spent time on the Colts and Vikings rosters.
Steele was a defensive standout at West Noble and Michigan. He joined the Cincinnati Bengals as a fourth round pick in 1998. Steele played in Cincinnati from 1998-2003.

INvets assists veterans with career opportunities in Indiana
INDIANAPOLIS (WISH) — Transitioning from military service to civilian life can be challenging, but INvets is dedicated to helping veterans find career opportunities and build a life in Indiana.
Blaine Zimmerman, president and CEO of INvets, stopped by WISH-TV to chat with Daybreak Anchor Jeremy Jenkins about the organization’s mission.
“We assist veterans every step of the way, from finding their first career to locating the right community for their families,” Zimmerman said. “We’re also there to help them find volunteer opportunities and ways to stay active in their communities.”
Zimmerman highlighted Indiana’s diverse living options and career opportunities in advanced manufacturing, healthcare, the tech sector, and logistics. “Whether you prefer rural, suburban, or urban living, Indiana offers affordable homes and great school systems,” he said. “It’s a fantastic place to raise a family.”
INvets partners with 650 companies statewide that actively seek to hire veterans. The organization supports veterans through the job search process, providing coaching, interview preparation, and advocacy. “We stay with them throughout the entire process, offering emotional support and encouragement,” Zimmerman noted.
In addition to helping veterans, INvets also supports their families. “We assist spouses in finding careers and provide information about school systems and community involvement opportunities,” Zimmerman said. “Our clients are very engaged and eager to be part of the community.”
Zimmerman emphasized that no one is left behind. INvets ensures that veterans and their families have the resources they need to thrive in all 92 counties of Indiana.
For those interested in supporting INvets, there are opportunities to volunteer, donate, and even apply for open positions within the organization. “We are passionate about what we do, and it makes a real impact on veterans and our Indiana communities,” Zimmerman said.
