If you listen to Washington State University sports, you’ll hear calls from a Coug who’s returned home: Chris King. Chris graduated in 2009 from the Edward R. Murrow College of Communication, returned to WSU when he took over radio broadcast announcing duties from Matt Chazanow in fall 2024.
King came back to Pullman after announcing for minor league baseball and Division I broadcasting experience with the University of Idaho Vandals and at Boise State University. He works for Washington State Sports Properties, a division of college athletics media company Learfield, and has won awards for his previous work.
Washington State Magazine editor Larry Clark and King talked about his path back to WSU, teamwork in producing sports broadcasts, telling the stories of Cougar sports, how he became a sports broadcaster, and some of the challenges of the job.
