About

I first entered the broadcast industry at the age of 14 while I was a freshman at Thomas McKean High School. He started out as a Disc Jockey for the school’s radio station, 88.1 FM WMHS, and quickly rose to the top of the class. Not only confined to the DJ booth, I was also a news and sports anchor for the station, going out to record interviews at school events and with people involved with the 2004 elections.

During his senior year I hosted two shows every day, doing the morning and afternoon drive shifts. He also ran the board for the stations very first remote broadcast and for the first play-by-play broadcasts for McKean’s basketball and football games.

For a small part of my freshman year I was the Executive Producer for McKean’s morning television show, which was broadcasted over the school on a closed circuit system. I was also a frequent guest on 1450 WILM’s student journalist night, which was a roundtable discussion with students from all over the state.

During my second semester at Delaware Tech he joined The River 92.9 as an intern. After working with the promotions department, I was enlisted to the UD Football broadcast team as a Production Assistant for the 2006 season. After the football team ended their season I joined the station as an employee, running the board for the broadcasts for the UD Basketball games and the Wilmington Blue Rocks. This season will be my second as Studio engineer during all the football

    Hey Colin,

    Ryan Zimmerman’s hit streak halted at 30 games last night. As one streak ends, another is admired. Read about how Joe DiMaggio forever redefined ’56,’ and how his feat may never be broken. It is a record that thankfully cannot be broken through steroid use, and represents all that was once right in a game that has since gone so wrong.

    Thanks in advance!

    Hey,

    I think that its time for Joe Girardi to get his walking papers. I think the Yanks are better off with a new skipper. What do you think. Take a look at my latest article and comment on if you think Girardi should stay. Thanks in advance

    Hey Colin,

    Lou Gehrig has somehow been forgotten amongst the game’s immortals, even though he was possibly even more of a reason for the success of Ruth’s 1927 Yankees. Read about the quiet, forgotten leader of “Murderer’s Row,” Henry Lou Gehrig.

    So much for New York hospitality. The Mets Police have officially claimed their first victim.

    You should get a bit of a laugh out of this. Even though it's not supposed to be funny. Anyway, I would like your input.
