A couple of Greater Saint John athletes will be inducted into the Provincial sports hall of fame this year.
John Steele of Rothesay gets the nod after a golf career spanning more than 75 years. He is the only golfer to win the New Brunswick/ Prince Edward Island junior golf championship back in 1938. With six holes inone to his name and still scoring less than 100 at age 92, Steele continues to impress on the links.
Dean Hitchcock of Saint John was instrumental in the Canadian Senior's Volleyball Team from 1977 to 1984, helping it win a bronze medal at the 1979 Pan-American Games. He was named to the he Volleyball Canada Hall of Fame in 2001.
The other nominees include 1987-88 Campbellton Tigers who won the Hardy Cup in 1988 and George LeFeuvre of Jemseg who has been involved with cross-country skiing for almost 40 years.
The members will be inducted during a ceremony at Dalhousie Regional High on June 8.
