I have been broadcasting games since I entered college. My freshman year I was the voice of men's and women's basketball at Doane College. Throughout my years I have called play-by-play for not only basketball but softball, volleyball and football at the NAIA level. I have also served as play-by-play and color commentary for a commercial station, KUTT 99-5, in Fairbury, NE for high school football and basketball.
