Delaware Sports Legends:
Blue Hens, Hornets, High Schools and More

by Joe Nye

In Delaware Sports Legends (Blue Hens, Hornets, High Schools and More) author Joe Nye reviews the highlights of some of the greatest athletes to call the First State home. Though a state small in size, you'll read about men and women who have reached the heights of the national sports scene to include a Super Bowl MVP, an NFL MVP, a Super Bowl star, a Wimbledon Champ, a Masters contender, Olympic heroes and more. You'll also relive the triumphs of local stars who led the University of Delaware, Delaware State University and other local colleges to great athletic heights as well as high school phenoms whose exploits still live on years after graduation. In Delaware Sports Legends, you'll learn about the day LeBron James spent his birthday in Lewes, the William Penn grad who was traded for Hank Aaron, the Christiana High grad who carried his nation's flag as the world watched and much, much more.
