WINA to debut Friday Night Game Zone for coverage of HS Football

(CHARLOTTESVILLE, VA-WINA) For over 40 years, News Radio 98.9 and AM 1070 WINA has covered HS Football in Central Virginia. Typically it would be the WINA High School Football Game of the Week, with play by play coverage from one game in the area. Now WINA will expand its coverage to cover not one, but every game in the area through a new partnership with Notus Sports, and Scrimmage Play. A new program called “WINA’s Friday Night Game Zone” will make its debut on Friday, August 31st. The program will be hosted by WINA Sports personnel and will feature analyst, and former UVA Football standout Ahmad Hawkins. During the show, which will air on WINA and ESPN 1450AM and 102.9FM from 6p.m. to 9p.m. there will be interviews with area coaches and student athletes, as well as game updates from various sites, and the ability to do a live “listen in” to the Notus Sports game of the week. This will allow WINA to cover the entire area, and will have a similar feel to the “Red Zone” channel aspect of Direc TV’s NFL Sunday Ticket, or one of the network studio shows for College Football. Listen to Bart Isley of Scrimmage Play as he analyzes the action in the area on his weekly appearance on WINA’s ‘The Best Seat in the House’.
