Four high school representatives and one college coach will be recognized as the best in the local region at the Greater New Orleans Sports Hall of Fame Banquet on August 4 at the Mercedes-Benz Superdome.
The Greater New Orleans Sports Awards Committee, sponsored by the Allstate Sugar Bowl, selects annual award winners in a variety of categories; it also selects Amateur Athletes of the Month and each year's Hall of Fame class. Overall, 23 individuals and three teams will be honored at the banquet. This year's Hall of Fame class was announced over the last four days while the Corbett Awards, which recognize the top male and female amateur athletes in the state, will be released later this week.
