Calvin University Announces 2024 Football Broadcast Partners

GRAND RAPIDS, Mich. – Calvin University is pleased to announce its broadcast partners and broadcast team for its inaugural 2024 football season.

Veteran announcer and current Calvin Director of Corporate Partnerships and Athletics Sponsorships Bob Sack will serve as Calvin's play-by-play voice and will call all 10 games home and away. Former WXMI Fox-17 Sports Director Jason Hutton and former Western Michigan University and NFL quarterback Tim Hiller will handle color analysis throughout the season.

All 10 games will be broadcast through Michigan Sports Radio (Michigansportsradio.com) with home games including video and away games including just audio. A live video of all four of Calvin's home games will air on Calvinknights.com.

In addition, six of Calvin's 10 games will be carried on Grand Rapids radio outlets with TALK 1230 AM-WTKG carrying Calvin's games on September 7 (Oberlin), October 5 (Alma), November 2 (at Olivet), November 9 (Hope) and November 16  (Albion) with its September 28 game against Kalamazoo airing on 96.1 FM - The Game - WMAX. Radio broadcast outlets for Calvin's games on October 19 (at Adrian) and October 26 (at Trine) are still to be determined.

Finally, Calvin's season opener against Oberlin on September 7 and its rivalry game against Hope on November 9 will air live on WXSP-TV Nexstar Media Inc.

"We are thrilled to offer a variety of options to watch and/or listen to the inaugural season of Calvin University football," said Calvin Director of Athletics Dr. Jim Timmer. "Having Bob Sack as our lead broadcast voice provides a great foundation. Jason Hutton and Tim Hiller are about as knowledgeable as they come in terms of West Michigan football over the years, so we feel we have a great broadcast team. I am also grateful to our broadcast production technicians at Calvin that are working hard to put on a high-quality product. Finally, I would like to thank the folks from West Michigan Sports Radio, WTKG Radio, 96.1 FM The Game Radio and WXSP-TV for providing Calvin University the platforms to air its inaugural football season. It is humbling to see this type of response from the West Michigan broadcast community."

The Calvin University football program is under the direction of head coach Trent Figg. Figg will leads his 112-member team into season one this fall which includes full participation in the 2024 MIAA conference season as well as three non-conference contests. All four of Calvin's home games will be played at Eagles Stadium on the campus of Grand Rapids Christian High School.
