Rick Crawford (#14 Ford) will be honored along with the likes of Hank Aaron, Willie McCovey and Kenny Stabler when he is formally inducted into the Mobile (Ala.) Sports Hall of Fame on April 19. Crawford will be the 75th athlete to receive the honor, and the first from the world of motorsports. He was selected from a pool of 78 nominees after an overwhelming letter writing campaign from fans along the Gulf Coast. “I’ve always been proud to say I’m from Mobile and now being mentioned in the same sentence with my hero Hank Aaron is more than I could ever hope for,” Crawford said.(NASCAR PR)(1-18-2007)
