Sportscaster Stuart Scott will be inducted into the R.J. Reynolds High School Hall of Fame tonight in a game between two of Stuart's alma maters.

Crowds are expected to be so large for Fridsay's game that Northwest Boulevard is planned to be shut down around 5 p.m. Scott will be inducted during halftime of the game between Reynolds and Mount Tabor. Scott attended Mount Tabor back when it was a junior high school. He then went on to graduate from Reynolds in 1983.

Ten years later, Scott signed on with ESPN, where he became one of its most famous anchors. He died of cancer last month at 49.

Also at the game, items will be on sale to raise money for the V Foundation for Cancer Research.

Two others are scheduled to be inducted along with Scott - Don Flow and Zack Bacon. Tip-off for the game is scheduled for 7:30.
