Bryce Vann Sr. was inducted posthumously in 2019. He was a four-year letterman on the men's basketball team from 1958-61 and in his time, earned two All-American honors as one of the top scorers in school history.

His 500 points during the 1958-59 season – his freshman year – still rank among the most in one season in school history. He also averaged 9.9 rebounds per game that year, totaling 307 boards, which still ranks eighth on UCO’s single season list. He did not earn All-American honors that year, but went on to do so in each of the next two seasons. Vann finished his career with 1,353 points, which is the 10th most in school history to this date. It was the fourth-most in one career at the time of his graduation.

Bryce Sr., whose son Bruce was a member of the 1982 national championship football team at Central, passed away in 2005.
