Who’s in the Fayetteville Sports Club Hall of Fame?
Going back to 2003, the Fayetteville Sports Club Hall of Fame has added just over 100 people to its illustrious group.
Whether in high school, college or professionally – with a few writers and officials in the mix – these athletes, coaches and high-profile sports figures are among Fayetteville’s elite.
The Class of 2004 featured a Fayetteville-best seven inductees, including Douglas Byrd’s Bob Paroli and Seventy-First’s Marvin Powell. LaToya Pringle Sanders headlined the latest group, a six-person class that was celebrated in March.
