Award-Winning Sports Broadcasters Series

Devoted fans watch and listen each week as their favorite teams vie for the top honors in their chosen sport. These spectators depend on sports broadcasters to report every detail of what happens on the playing fields. The journalists offer insight into how each game is won or lost, and what will likely happen next. Some sports broadcasters even played a sport professionally themselves in the past. The Award-Winning Sports Broadcasters series discusses the lives and careers of Malika Andrews, Mike Breen, Nate Burleson, Cris Collinsworth, Holly Rowe, and Mike Tirico. With striking color photographs, a fun Find Out More section, and a useful index, this series will engage readers looking to learn more about these sports journalists, many of whom have as many fans as the professional athletes they cover.
