You can listen to tonight's game between the Bears and Saints on AM-790 WPRV in Providence or online at www.790business.com. Brown does have live video through brownbears.com for $8. I will be on the color commentary working with Dan Rubin. Give him a follow on Twitter @DanRubin12. We need practice games, too, or at least I do! After eight months away from basketball play-by-play, I was certainly rusty last night. The biggest problem I had was keeping up with the action (I was winded 10 minutes into the game) and I was having trouble finding the right words to describe certain things. When I listened back to the game before bed last night, it did not end up sounding as bad as I thought live, but still, I am glad to have that "practice game" under my belt. I made sure on my drive home to fire up the Celtics game and listen to Sean Grande and take some mental notes. In fact, I like to do that often, whether it is Grande or other NBA play-by-play broadcasters. One of the advantages of having a Sprint phone is the NBA Game Time app which gives you access to every team's live radio broadcast. The night before my own broadcast, I like to flip around and listen to the pros. Anyways, UMass Lowell ended up with a blow-out victory over Clark and the regular season begins next Wednesday. I am confident I will be ready to go then, but it will still take a few games to get back into a comfortable groove. Meanwhile, tomorrow night I will be serving as the color commentator for Brown University men's hockey against St. Lawrence in Providence. The last few days I have been preparing for that, but I am also getting prepped for Saturday's Northeast-10 Football Championship Game between New Haven and American International. I will be back tomorrow night with an update before the hockey game! Hello everyone, it's a few minutes away from the start of my winter broadcasting schedule. River Hawk men's basketball is hosting the Clark University Cougars in an exhibition game. You can watch the game and listen to my play-by-play by clicking this link: http://gse.uml.edu/live/athletics.htm - Enjoy! It is the night before my first basketball play-by-play broadcast of the season, and well for me, this is the Eve of a New Year. Tomorrow night it will be UMass Lowell men's basketball hosting Clark University in an exhibition matchup. Not only will it be a tune-up for the RIver Hawks, but it will also be a chance for me to get back into the swing of things. Game time is at 7 p.m. and you can watch the Live Video Here. I am always looking for feedback, so please feel free to send me your thoughts on anything I do. Even though it is a video broadcast, I call the action as if it is "radio only" since it is just a high-angle, one-camera production with the only graphic being a scoreboard overlay. Plus, this gives the viewer/listener the option of turning their speakers up and walking into another room. This is my third season as the voice of UMass Lowell men's and women's basketball. The opportunity came about after I filled in on a pair of broadcasts during the 2009-'10 season. When the position opened up, I transitioned right into it, and have been running with it since. It is a staple of my freelance broadcasting schedule during the winter months. Tomorrow starts a stretch of 23 games that I will be announcing in some form or fashion between November 7 and December 7. Of course, that does not include my work on Sports Radio WEEI. Later this week I will be making my debut as a color commentator for Brown University men's hockey and on Saturday afternoon I will be providing the play-by-play for the Northeast-10 Football Conference Championship game. More on those events at that time. I will be back tomorrow with another post, updating the experience of my first basketball broadcast of the year. |
