Arundel Sports Hall of Fame announces 2009 class

The Anne Arundel County Sports Hall of Fame announced its 2009 class with four new members set to be inducted at the 19th annual Hall of Fame banquet Oct. 21 at Michael's Eighth Avenue in Glen Burnie.

Skip Brown, Michael Burnett, Luis Grillo and Theresa Vermillion will be recognized for their athletic achievement in Anne Arundel, joining 83 other members in the Hall.

Brown spent 20 years as baseball coach at Anne Arundel Community College, named Maryland Jr. College Coach of the Year seven times, and also served as AACC's soccer coach for three years.

Burnett was a standout lacrosse player at St. Mary's and the University of North Carolina, where he was an All-American attackman in each of his four years from 1980 to 1983.
The Tar Heels won two national championships during his playing days.

Luis Grillo, a Washington, D.C., native who has called Annapolis home since 1989, has been a basketball referee since 1975. He was an NCAA Division I official from 1975 to 1988 before spending the past 20 years as an NBA official, still active in the pro game.

Vermillion, a Southern High grad, was inducted into the National Duckpin Hall of Fame in 1999. She began bowling professionally in 1975 with the Ladies Pro Duckpin Tour, earning Rookie of the Year honors and going on to win five professional titles during her career.
Tickets for the banquet are $30 and available by calling Barbara Walter at 410-859-0151.
