Scot Ruggles

Scot Ruggles was born in a quaint suburb of Boston, MA . Scot's father, Sandy was a teacher and head coach of two highly successful sport programs at the local high school, football and ice hockey. Scot and his sister, Mary would be on the sideline every Friday night during the fall cheering on their father and the teams he led to numerous championships. It was during this time that Scot saw first-hand the power and results of teamwork, commitment and discipline. His love of football and the life-lessons it teaches was born during this time and shaped his life and character. Scot joined the Marshall University coaching staff in Huntington, WV where he helped lead the 'Herd' to a bowl game victory and an AP Top 20 finish. Scot's dreams were coming true and his career was going as well as he'd hoped for...or so he thought. During the off-season, his head coach asked him to do a commercial for a local hospital that was partnered with the university. Scot had never given acting a thought
