NORFOLK, Va. - Some local high school students will help a Norfolk native march into the NFL Hall of Fame.
Organizers asked the band from Bruce Smith's alma mater, Booker T. Washington, to perform at Saturday's induction parade in Canton, Ohio. Smith also invited five students from each Norfolk high school to be part of the festivities.
About 90 band members will leave the school Friday at 3 a.m. to begin the journey to Canton.
WAVY.com photojournalist Matt Mrozinski was at the group's final practice on Thursday.
