PRINCE GEORGE SPORTS HALL OF FAME - BOXING

BC BOXING - Top City for recognizing the boxing community; By B. Zelley

Looking at the state of people from the boxing community being
recognized in their city Sports Halls of Fame leaves one with a limited number
recognized, but it appears the City of Prince George is top city to support
boxing.  Another name has been recently added - WAYNE SPONAGLE.
This coupled with three top special awards of Boxing BC going to three from Prince George leaves one to wonder when are other towns and villages going to step-up to the plate.

The induction of Wayne Sponagle brings the total for Prince George to seven.
Some folks my remember Harold Mann, Laurie Mann, Allen & Boyd Bayne,
Sidney McKnight and Jack Meda
