Featured Inductee

Hawkins, Courtney

If you want to get Courtney Hawkins started, just bring up the issue of specialization in high school sports.

All too often, kids are being told they need to focus on one sport to have a chance of playing at the college or professional level.

It's particularly prevalent in Flint, where many youngsters are steered toward year-round basketball.

Hawkins hates what he sees.

Goggins, a fullback, was captain of the University of Detroit football team in 1951. He was a three-year starter and selected to the Catholic All-American team. At St. Michael High, he lettered four years each in football, basketball and baseball.
