Jeff Francoeur among selections to Gwinnett Sports Hall of Fame’s Class of 2018

One of Gwinnett’s most honored two-sport stars, an NFL punter, two decorated college standouts and the county’s most accomplished golfer make up the Class of 2018 for the Gwinnett County Sports Hall of Fame, which released its list of inductees this weekend.

The ninth annual induction dinner, scheduled for April 30 at the Infinite Energy Forum’s Grand Ballroom, also will feature a prominent keynote speaker in longtime Atlanta Braves manager Bobby Cox, a 2014 Baseball Hall of Fame selection. Its purpose, in addition to honoring Gwinnett’s best in sports, is to raise funds for the Gwinnett County Public Schools Foundation.
