I got this from a very good source that recently, WVDXA's very own Bob Anthony, W8OM was inducted into the Buffalo High School Sports Hall of Fame.  I knew Bob was a standout baseball star at Buffalo back in the day but I was told he was also a great basketball and football star for the Buffalo Bisons. 

I want to congratulate you Bobby and say that I hope you found a prominent place to display your HoF award somewhere amongst your many DX Awards....  We are certainly proud of you, Brother!

73,
Halbert, W8HC

Wowie!  Is this true?  A WVDXA superstar Top-of-DXCC-Honor-Roll winner is also a sports hall of famer?

What an additional honor, Bob! 

Proud to know you, friend.

Garry, W8OI
