Regular Anchoring Work

Clicking on the photo below will show you my ability as a regular anchor. I do not appear on the main portion of the news very often because I am mainly a sports anchor but when duty calls for me for to be a main anchor, I am ready to go.

Sports Anchoring Work

Being a Sports Anchor is something I take pride in. I try to be enthusiastic and upbeat when either telling a result or talk about an upcoming game. Click on the photo to view my Sports Anchoring playlist.

Game Announcing

IMG_3639.JPG

This is my specialty when it comes to being a broadcaster. My first game as announcer happened when I was a Sophomore. Over the years I have learned to hone my craft. I chose the games where I have put on my best announcing skills for you to observe. (Scroll all the way down for announcing examples). These broadcasts came as a courtesy of ESPN.

​

The game that is in the link above is the Smithville vs Kearney 2022 Football broadcast. In this game the Kearney Bulldogs are looking for their first win against the Smithville Warriors in over 8 seasons. Enjoy this magnificent matchup that comes down to the wire. But mostly listen to my color commentary throughout the game as I analyze what each offense and defense is trying to do to give their team a chance to win.

The game above in this link is about a thriller between the Kearney and Smithville girls teams in a 2023 mid January matchup. Watch as Dante Distefano and Taylor James provide yet again great announcing coverage for the viewers of this game. Please take a listen to my color commentary and thoughts through the game.

This game is my last Football broadcast for ESPN as a Bulldog Broadcasting Network announcer. Throughout the 2023 Football season I worked mainly as a play by play announcer. I took the job from my partner Dante Distefano after he graduated.  This game is between the visiting Belton Pirates and the Kearney Bulldogs. Kearney is trying to finish some unfinished business from the 2022 season in which they started the season 10-0 but then lost to their rival Smithville 49-13 in the District Championship. The Belton Pirates have had an up and down season but they are looking for an upset against the high flying Bulldogs.

​

This game is a Basketball broadcast for boys basketball between the Ruskin Golden Eagles and the Kearney Bulldogs. Ruskin has a 3 game win streak over Kearney but lost their Head Coach in the middle of the season. Kearney is trying to add more wins to their already impressive 2023-24 season campaign. Please, pay attention to how I enhance the broadcast with my skills as a play by play announcer.
