Officials for Fort Hays State University and Eagle Radio announced in a joint news conference this morning on the FHSU campus that they have signed a three-year, renewable contract for broadcasting Tiger sports events. He replaces Jack Kuestermeyer, who departed recently to become assistant director of media services for the University of Nevada at Reno. Radio Inc. We wanted to try some new things and our partnership with Radio Inc. proved to be an exciting and rewarding experience. They never wavered in their support for the university, and we continued to look to them as a partner in community projects such as making the visit of 'A T. rex Named Sue' a huge success.
Life is full of twists and turns.
This chance to renew our sports broadcasting partnership with Eagle Radio is one of the best of those twists and turns. We're very pleased to continue our partnership with the university not only in sports but also in a wide range of community activities, such as the Sue exhibit at the Sternberg Museum. The winning attitude at Fort Hays State ties in perfectly with the winning attitude we have at Eagle Radio. Tom Spicer, FHSU's athletic director, also expressed enthusiasm for the new contract. We appreciate Gary Shorman and all the Eagle Radio personnel for their efforts in maintaining the level of excellence we've become accustomed to and expect.
