NASHVILLE, Tenn. (AP) - The Tennessee Sports Hall of Fame is honoring its 2020 class this weekend, but the event will be held through a two-hour televised special rather than an in-person ceremony due to the coronavirus pandemic.

The broadcast is set for 7 p.m. CDT Saturday and will be hosted by the voice of the Tennessee Titans, Mike Keith. Check local listings for outlets showing the special.

Honorees include Dolly Parton as Tennessean of the year, Tennessee Titans running back Derrick Henry as pro athlete of the year and the Tennessee Titans as the pro team of the year.

A weeklong silent auction continues through 8 p.m. Sunday, featuring items that include a Tennessee Titans team-issued football autographed by Jeff Fisher, a Dolly Parton-autographed guitar and a Vanderbilt baseball signed by Tim Corbin.
