  • 2011 Program
    2 x Rio Grande Valley Sports Hall of Fame I welcome you to the 24th Annual Rio Grande Valley Sports Hall of Fame Induction Banquet. We are happy to have the banquet return to Brownsville, after having been in McAllen and Donna for the past four years. Brownsville hosted the two largest crowds of our banquet history in 2005 and 2006 with attendance of 360 guests. With the outstanding Class of 2011 being honored tonight, the attendance should surpass 300 again! I offer my congratulations to the 2011 class of seven inductees! As is usually the case, football again dominates the class that was selected by 85 voters from the group of past inductees and Hall of Fame board members, who took time to study the biographies and submit their votes last September. Six of the seven new inductees were outstanding football players representing their high schools. Two of them (Bob Brumley and Sammy Garza) went on to play professional football after highly successful collegiate careers. Another (Travis Sanders) still holds a 33-year old consecutive 100-yard rushing record for the Valley. All-State quarterback & safety (Donald Guillot) went on to NCAA baseball stardom at the University of Texas-PanAmerican, while the football coach of the class (Bruce Bush) has a stellar record of 41 successful seasons in South Texas. Another former quarterback from the state semi-finalist PSJA Bears (Carlos Vela) became a well-known trackand& field coach in the Valley. In addition, not to be outdone is the man (Ronnie Zamora) who helps players and coaches of several sports gain local, state and national recognition with his sports media writing, announcing and website work, always bringing recognition for others to the Valley.

From the industrial revolution to today’s information age, the United States has led the world in creating the inventions and ideas that drive economic prosperity. America’s universities are responsible for 36 percent of all research in the country, including 53 percent of all basic research, and they help keep America at the forefront of the 21st century economy. The Federal Government has recognized the importance of university research by providing roughly 60 percent of all academic R&D funding. American academic research has benefited from the fact that the US remains a top magnet for the world’s best and brightest students and graduates 16 percent of all PhDs worldwide in scientific and technical fields.
