WHAT WE DO

To serve our local sports fans the best audio entertainment

experience via radio, stream and app. ESPN Ithaca features local

SportsCenter updates seven days a week, Between The Lines

weekdays 4-5p, live on-site reporting and over 70 high school

games per year. Uniquely positioned, we're the dominant 24/7

local sports media outlet for the Ithaca market.

ESPN Ithaca features a robust lineup of play-by-play including

Yankees baseball, Cornell wrestling, Syracuse basketball and

football along with engaging personalities like Mike & Mike, Colin

Cowherd and Menard & Silverman. We constantly look for ways

to improve our programming to bring fans and advertisers the

best possible experience. We take sports seriously, but try not to

take ourselves too seriously.

OUR MISSION.

Co-hosted by Syracuse alums Jeremy Menard and Eric Silverman. Life long sports fans, they "Bring It" to Between The Lines everyday, offering unique local sports entertainment weekdays 4-5pm. Whether recounting a last-second play, interviewing an outstanding local athlete or deliberating the merits of a draft choice... our listeners get an earful.

Ithaca College alum, Nick Karski is the lead reporter for our high school play-by-play coverage. Joined by Eric Silverman, Matt Schultz, Brian Delaney, LaMarr Peters, Matt Tyman and Matt Colbert, they collectively call over 85 high school & collegiate events yearly. Since 2011, we've broadcast 5 NYS Championship games including two Ithaca High Lax finals, two Lansing Boy's Soccer finals and the 2012 perfect 26-0 Lansing Baseball team's championship!

Whether it's a review of Friday Night Lights or previewing the Saturday slate of games...Nick Karski hosts the team of reporters and contributors through the Fall Season on Saturday 10-11a, with a special two-hour on-location GameDay Cortaca broadcast.

We've teamed up with Ehrhart Energy to recognize outstanding athletic performances and award athletics scholarships and make contributions to local booster clubs. In the first year of this program, we will recognize over 70 MVP high school athletes, award over $3,500 to local booster clubs and and award two $1,000 college scholarships to an outstanding male & female scholar athlete.
