Growing up one block from the campus, Jay Frye knew all about DePauw sports. He prepared as a standout three-sport athlete at Greencastle High School. He was named to the All-Western Indiana Conference basketball, baseball and football teams in 1968,as well as all sectional, regional and semi-state teams in basketball, and all state in football and baseball.

An interview with Scott Hoke… 40 year broadcasting legend…

Scott Hoke is a broadcasting veteran of more than 40 years, both in television and radio, and since 2008, he’s been the TV host of Mecum’s televised auction action. Scott grew up in Indianapolis and has always loved cars. His home was close enough to the Indianapolis Motor Speedway and Indianapolis Raceway Park that he could hear cars practicing and racing at both venues from his backyard. He attended his first Indy 500 in 1973, and later worked at the United States Auto Club while in high school. Scott was a member of the IMS Public Address announce crew for seven years, and from 1989-1998, he worked as a sports anchor and reporter at WRTV-6 (ABC) in Indianapolis. Scott also spent six seasons as the TV Host of the Indiana Pacers television broadcasts and nine years as the morning radio host on WFYI-FM (NPR) in Indianapolis. Scott is equally adept as an emcee and event host at functions ranging from large fundraisers to the Indianapolis Symphony Orchestra’s outdoor summer concert series, “Symphony on the Prairie,” which he hosted for 17 years. In his spare time, Scott is an avid musician who plays upright bass and electric bass in several jazz bands.
