The 2025-26 Sports Season was one to remember and monumental for RoCo Radio!
We are so thankful for our community and the support you've provided us as we continue to grow.
This year, we established ourselves as the Undisputed Leader in local sports coverage.
124 Game broadcasts and many others covered in different ways.
34 Playoff games.
3 State Championship Broadcasts.
10,230 Listener Hours. (It would take one listener 24/7 listening for 426 days to catch up to that total)
1.9 Million Facebook Views.
A handful of firsts.
Our team covered Soccer, Volleyball and Wrestling for the very first time.
In week one of football, we produced game broadcasts for all four teams for the first time in RoCo Radio history.
During baseball and softball, we were able to broadcast three live playoff games simultaneously.
To say I'm proud is an understatement.
To all of our athletic directors in Rockingham County, administration, boosters and program supporters -- THANK YOU for believing in us. Fighting for us. Supporting and welcoming us with open arms. You've taken us on as if we were family and words cannot express what that means to us.
To all our head coaches and assistant coaches, you are our role models. What you do for our community and our student athletes will never get enough recognition. And that's the way you'd have it. But just know, at the end of the day, win or loss, we are driven by your impact.
To our parents, family members, sponsors, supporters and local fans (Shoutout to our #1 Fan Melita Hatley) -- You are our lifeblood! We could not do this without you and there isn't a time we open the mic, that we don't relish in the opportunity we have been granted. ALL BECAUSE OF YOU.
Our Mission will always be to connect you to the student athletes, coaches and programs you love, when you cannot be there.
Jonathan Hatley -- You're one of the most dedicated people I've ever met. I appreciate you more than you'll ever know. Your love for local athletics is unmatched. Thank you for all you do for our listeners and for RoCo Radio and for being a great friend.
Jay Ramey - I saw a kid who reminded me of the love I used to carry for covering sports. You brought that back for me and I'll be forever thankful for that. More importantly, I'm beyond proud of you for the work you've put in. You found your lane, got in the car, and took off. Keep driving. Even when the path doesn't seem clear.
David Ray Woods -- I was looking for a person to talk football with. Little did I know I'd find one of the best friends I could ever ask for. Thank you for your dedication, friendship and passion for Football and our local athletes. Your presentation is one-of-a-kind. It's why you're the Mayor of RoCo Radio. Whether its the call or the ride to the game, I always look forward to Friday nights.
Andrea Dexter -- My Rock. My Rock Steady. The one who always believes in me, even when I doubt myself. Thank you for always encouraging me to do what I love and be ME. I love you more than you'll ever know.
Finally, from the bottom of my heart, thank you to anyone that has supported or provided encouragement.
You're giving fuel to the little boy still chasing the dream he concocted over 30 years ago.
-- Joe D.
