And the inductees to the Hall of Champions are...

On a day at Scotch where the Firsts teams were getting ready to head out onto the playing grounds and compete in the finals, Old Scotch Collegians were gathering to celebrate past successes in their sporting fields at our 125th Anniversary Hall of Champions lunch.

25 years ago, for the College’s centennial celebrations, 32 past Scotch students were inducted into what was the Sports Hall of Fame. 25 years on, in our 125th year, we inducted another 19 OSC into the group. We also took the opportunity to rename the group the Hall of Champions.

Lachie Reid and Don Langsford.

Overlooking the Playing Fields from the Dining Room, our new inductees and past recipients and their guests, Headmaster Dr

Alec O’Connell, Chair of Council Mark Paganin and OSC President Aaron McDonald, all enjoyed the presentation and interviews by the incomparable journalist and commentator and current Scotch parent, Lachy Reid. All inductees remembered Scotch as a great beginning to many of their careers and had fond memories of kicking balls on the fields, early morning rowing sessions and some tough rugby games.
