NORFOLK, Va. (WAVY) – The Class of 2023 inductees for the Virginia Sports Hall of Fame will have a strong Hampton Roads and University of Virginia flavor among the eight inductees and Distinguished Virginian honoree.
“What excites me most about this class is how it truly represents all of Virginia,” said Will Driscoll, Virginia Sports Hall of Fame executive director. “You have the Hampton Roads, Central, Northern, Southwest, and Southside regions all with representation among this year’s honorees. It truly is a class worthy of our 50th Induction events.”
The inductees include DeAngelo Hall, Jimmye Laycock, Francena McCorory, Shawn Moore, Jerry Ratcliffe, Bob Rotanz, Sheila Trice-Myers and Ryan Zimmerman. William & Mary football legend Joe Montgomery will receive the Hall’s Distinguished Virginian award.
