Maureen Davis Shaw
Maureen (Shaw) Davis began her association with wrestling as a high school scorekeeper at Lebanon under the direction of HOF charter member Dick Weisbrodt. She picked up scoring chores again at OCE (now Western Oregon) in 1971 when she met and married Kurt Davis. Maureen set-up and directed tournaments at Astoria from 1972 though 1977, at Grant High School of Portland from 1980 through 1985, and at Redmond High School from 1985 through 2002. When Oregon’s largest tournament, the Oregon Wrestling Classic, moved to central Oregon in 2002, she became facilities director for the next two decades. Her duties included supervising all volunteers, security, ticket sales and hospitality plus set-up and clean- up in the massive Deschutes County Fairgrounds. In 2020, Maureen became the first woman to hand out awards at the OSAA state championships. To guarantee keeping busy, she has created and calligraphed awards at every stop in her career for 50-plus years. Maureen lives in Astoria with her HOF member husband, Kurt.
