Oklahoma City University Athletics

Virginia Scott worked at Oklahoma City University for over 30 years. She started working in the development office, and then moved to the position of athletic director’s secretary when Paul Hansen became head basketball coach and athletic director.
During her years in the athletic department, she provided many services, including typing play-by-play during the men’s and women’s basketball games. She was known for having an extensive knowledge about the student-athletes who attended OCU during her time of service and being a tireless worker in helping all students who came to her for help.
“Hugh and Virginia served this university for many years,” said former OCU athletics director Bud Sahmaunt, who introduced and spoke in tribute of the Scotts. “They were loyal employees, loyal graduates and loyal supporters.”
Her son Hugh Scott Jr. presented her and her husband Hugh Scott Sr. at their induction ceremony on Nov. 5, 2004. The Scotts were inducted into the Hall of Fame posthumously for meritorious service in their contributions to OCU athletics.
