SAVANNAH, Ga. - The Savannah Ghost Pirates are proud to welcome Isaac Basinger as the new Broadcaster and Manager of Media Relations.
Basinger will serve as the "Voice of the Ghost Pirates" on game broadcasts this season, while also serving as the team's lead media relations contact.

Basinger, a 2022 graduate of West Liberty University, also served as the "Voice of the Hilltoppers" during his time as a student, broadcasting over 100 different sporting events. He earned a bachelor's degree in Broadcasting with a minor in Public Relations.
