When I stepped onto campus at West Virginia University in
2019, my mission was to become a manager on the basketball team. There was not
much else I wanted at the time. I talked to Josh Eilert of WVU Basketball and
he told me that there were no spots left, and that I should join the radio
station as that would be more conducive to my career goals.
He could not have told me a better thing to do. My freshman
year was filled with U92 memories such as rambunctious sports nights on
Wednesdays, the first 92ers intramural basketball team and getting together
with the boys to watch various sporting events. The most pivotal moment of that
year was starting my mixed martial arts podcast, Throwin’ Hands, which made me
realize what I wanted to do in life.
