Victory Awards Dinner in Huntington Honors Athletes
About 300 people attended the 23rd annual Victory Awards Dinner in Huntington last Thursday. The event honors state athlete of the year and inducts Hall of Fame members, with speakers Dick Gallagher and Sam Snead. An earlier date and past missteps at Parkersburg affected attendance and the program had a faulty microphone and a missing All State football honoree name, but the dinner remained an enjoyable event for athletes and coaches.
