Countdown to Kickoff: Local High School Sports Broadcast

ZANESVILLE, OH – The Countdown to Kickoff broadcast is back and will be broadcasting live on Highway 103 and Z92 on August 14th from 6 to 8 PM.

This exciting show will shine a spotlight on our local high school sports. This year’s show will feature nine coaches from nine different teams, providing fans with an exclusive look at what to expect this season.

“They’ll get an insight as to what the coaches are doing and where they think their teams are at. It kind of gives listeners and viewers the opportunity to get some inside track on the coaches and their plans.” WHIZ Station Manager, Jay Benson said.

For a fun and lively atmosphere, head over to The Barn on Linden Avenue in Zanesville. They’ll be giving away a visa gift card to the team that brings the most supporters to The Barn during the broadcast.

“We’re going to have pizza for all the teams and all the participating coaches. It’s exciting for us to be a part of it and have all the teams come down and be part of the event. The team that brings the most supporters is going to win a $500 visa gift card to benefit their boosters’ program. That’s exciting. We’ve got some great and exciting teams here in our local area including Rosecrans, Meadowbrook, and the Blue Devils right here in Zanesville.” Owner of The Barn, Jim Watson.

If you miss the live broadcast, don’t worry! You can catch an hour-long version of the show on Fox 5 this Saturday morning at 9, or on Sunday morning at 8 AM.

The Barn is located at 1947 Linden Avenue, Zanesville.
