Recent UMaine Sports Hall of Fame inductee featured in WLBZ report
WLBZ (Channel 2) reported on Bob McPhee, one of the newest members of the University of Maine Sports Hall of Fame. The sportswriter and assistant coach for the Dirigo High School baseball team was a three-sport athlete at Rumford High School during the mid-1970s until a tragic football injury left him paralyzed. “No one knows how they will act until they are faced with a situation, so look within yourself and take some responsibility,” McPhee said during his acceptance speech. Andrew Hartung, Jacob Eaton, Margaret Henrick McGregor, Johanna Riley Evans and Edward Woodbrey II also were inducted into the UMaine Sports Hall of Fame during the ceremony held at the Black Bear Inn, WLBZ reported. The Bangor Daily News also recently published an article on McPhee.
