History of the Sports Hall of Fame

Ten men and two women, representing more than eight decades of athletic achievement, were inducted into the inaugural class of the R.J. Reynolds High School Sports Hall of Fame on May 4, 2008. Inductees included Claude "Pop" Joyner, Mary Garber, John Tandy, Herman W. Bryson, Sam L. Sanders, Shirley S. "Red" Wilson, Robert Deaton, Stan Crews, Conrad Graham, Tommy Greg, Kim Lash Gillespie and Derrele Mitchell.
