Sutherland and her husband, Dr. Berry Sutherland, one of the first professors hired at UTSA in 1976, helped start the basketball program. Following Berry’s death, Betty created the Berry Sutherland Endowed Scholarship in Athletics. Sutherland was a long-time season-ticket holder for UTSA Athletics.
