Last season for the Ladyjacks, Scott started all 34 games and averaged 6.7 points and 2.4 rebounds per game. She also collected 44 steals, dished out 57 assists and was second on the team with 49 three-point field goals.

She averaged 4.6 points and 1.4 rebounds in addition to tallying 32 assists, 39 steals and eight blocked shots in her freshman campaign.

Cunningham on Scott:
"Angel Scott, a veteran guard with a versatile skill set, is coming to Missouri State after two successful years in a winning program. Angel is highly competitive and fits in perfectly with our team culture. She has a high basketball IQ, can handle the ball, and brings in an outstanding perimeter shot that will stretch the floor for us offensively. We are thrilled to have her and can't wait to get her on campus this summer!"
