Will Driscoll, executive director of the Virginia Sports Hall of Fame, reports that Ronde Barber, named to the Pro Football Hall of Fame in the past week, will be the 13th member of the Virginia Sports Hall to be enshrined in Canton, Ohio.
Barber, a standout defensive back at Cave Spring High School in Roanoke County and at the University of Virginia, played 16 seasons for the Tampa Bay Buccaneers before he retired following the 2012 season.
He will be third former UVa player to be enshrined, following running back Bill Dudley from Bluefield in 1966 and offensive lineman Henry Jordan from Newport News in 1995.
