Bakersfield Condors News Release
CONDORSTOWN, Calif. - The Bakersfield Condors announced today that Fox Sports Radio 970am, along with iHeartRadio and AmericaOne, will serve as the official broadcast home for all 72 Condors contests for the upcoming 2012-13 season. Broadcast duo Kevin Bartl (@KevinBartl) and Ryan Holt (@BroadcastHolt) will call all the action for the 15th Anniversary campaign.
Fox Sports Radio 970am, owned by Clear Channel Communications, has carried the Condors for the past two seasons and will broadcast every game this season, in its entirety, beginning with the Condors Countdown pre-game show, 15 minutes prior to every broadcast.
In addition, the station will carry a one-hour Condors radio show, Condors Insider, every Thursday night from 6-7 p.m. with Bartl and Holt serving as the hosts. It will feature exclusive interviews with the team, highlights from the past week's games, and ridiculous banter that you have come to expect from Condorstown!
"We're excited to continue our partnership with Fox Sports Radio 970am, iHeartRadio, and Clear Channel Communications," said Condors Team President Matthew Riley. "Not only is it great for fans to listen to games in the car, or online, but with the app it gives them the ability to listen wherever on their phones."
'As Bakersfield's only sports station, we're proud of our association with the Condors," said Clear Channel Operations Manager and Program Director Kenn McCloud. "We are happy to once again bring the games on the air and on iHeartRadio to Condorstown."
Fox Sports Radio 970am is available on the dial, online at www.foxsports970am.com, or through the iHeartRadio App on your smartphone so that you can take in all the exciting action of Condors hockey no matter where you are!
Holt, 24, begins his second campaign in Condorstown and will serve as the play-by-play voice for all home and road games this season. Originally from North Weymouth, Mass., he previously worked for the Corpus Christi (TX) IceRays (NAHL) and Worcester Sharks (AHL).
Bartl, 37, enters his 10th season behind the mic in Condorstown and will provide color commentary for all home contests this season. The long-standing Condors broadcaster is a two-time broadcaster of the year and served as the television broadcaster for the 2011 ECHL All-Star Classic held in Bakersfield.
AmericaOne will once again serve as the official pay-per-view video provider of the ECHL, streaming all 72 Condors games online via www.americaone.com.
