Colorado Eagles News Release
WINDSOR, Colo. - The Colorado Eagles announced today that Tori Holt, the team's play-by-play broadcaster and the "voice" of the Eagles, has been hired to do some extra work for Altitude Sports & Entertainment. Holt will join the Altitude contingent to do post-game analysis for Colorado Avalanche games on Sundays, Mondays and Tuesdays for the remainder of the season (a full schedule is listed below).
"I'm excited about this opportunity. It's a great step in the furthering of my broadcasting career," Holt said. "Everyone at Altitude has been great to me and I've enjoyed everything I've done with them so far. I'd like to thank both Altitude for the opportunity and (team President and Head Coach) Chris Stewart for being so supportive."
The post-game analysis is just one more aspect of Holt's branching out with Altitude; he has already broadened his horizons by doing color commentary and play-by-play for various Eagles games the past two seasons, along with hosting the Colorado Eagles NoCo Hockey Show on the network. Holt has also done some work for FOX Sports Rocky Mountain this season, filling in for Tim Neverett on select Denver Pioneer broadcasts.

TORI HOLT- The Colorado Eagles have had only one broadcaster as they enter their fifth season in the CHL. Holt, 32, broadcast all 283 regular season games and 57 playoff contests through the team's first four years. Last season he had the opportunity to call eight games on Altitude Sports & Entertainment, including game six of the President's Cup Finals with Colorado Avalanche Broadcaster Norm Jones. He was nominated for the CHL's Broadcaster of the Year Award, and he and his broadcast crew won a Colorado Broadcaster's Association Award for the "Best Sports Coverage by a Major Market."
From 1997-2001, Holt broadcast the Saint Cloud State Huskies hockey team on Charter Cable Communications and the WB network in the Twin Cities. At SCSU he was able to show versatility in the broadcast booth by doing play-by-play, color, filling in as a studio host and taking on reporting duties as well.
