Scott Davis, Voice of Track & Field in U.S., noted statistician, R.I.P., notes from IAAF, TAFWA, note by Larry Eder

Early this morning, I woke up, and as is my habit, I checked my email. I saw the following note from TAFWA President Jack Pfeiffer with some sad news. Scott Davis had died on Wednesday, August 18, after contracting an infection in Moncton, Canada.

Scott Davis was one of the sports' top announcers and top statisticians. He was responsible for the FAST annual, and the announcing at many of the top meetings in the U.S. and around the globe. If you were at the Rbk Grand Prix, or the Nike Pre, the USA Outdoors, and the
World Junior Championships, you would have heard the dulcid tones of Scott Davis. Scott
Davis loved his family, his life, his friends and his sport. I will miss him.
