https://radioinsight.com/wp-content/images/2020/03/999thefan-200x200.pngCapitol Broadcasting Company Sports “99.9 The Fan” WCMC-FM Holly Springs/Raleigh NC has appointed Tim Donnelly as its new 3-6pm host.
Donnelly joins WCMC-FM from Max Media’s ?Priority Auto Sports Radio 94.1 (https://www.espnradio941.com)” WVSP Yorktown/Norfolk VA where he has hosted afternoons since June 2021 (https://radioinsight.com/headlines/209099/wvsp-adds-tim-donnelly-show-to-local-lineup/). The former University of Delaware quarterback previously hosted mornings at ?Supersports 101.7? WRAD Blacksburg VA and served as OM/host at ?ESPN Ithaca? 1160 WPIE Trumansburg NY. He will also contribute web content and analysis to the company’s WRALSportsFan.com (http://WRALSportsFan.com) and longform audio content for the Capitol Broadcasting Podcast Network.
The station also notes that Dennis Cox, who will serve as the show’s producer and take on a bigger on-air role. Cox currently serves as host of a weekly radio/TV show and podcast “Culture State” for the company and fill-in host at the station and on the NHL’s Carolina Hurricanes and ACC men’s basketball coverage.
Donnelly succeeds “The OG with Joe Ovies and Joe Giglio” in afternoons following the cancellation of their show (https://capitolbroadcasting.com/2023/04/27/wrals-99-9-the-fan-switches-things-up-changes-show-to-single-host/) at the end of April.
Capitol Broadcasting Company announces the addition of personality Tim Donnelly to its daily lineup on 99.9 The Fan. Starting in mid-July, Donnelly will host the local weekday 3p-6p show on sports radio station WCMC in Raleigh, North Carolina.
?Tim has a very successful track record in radio. His experience as a college athlete gives him a truly unique perspective,? said Brian Grube, General Manager of Capitol Broadcasting Radio. ?This is a robust market for sports. College rivalries dominate the landscape while local pro teams like the Carolina Hurricanes, NC Courage and Durham Bulls unite fans under one umbrella. Tim?s coverage will give listeners a broad understanding of the sports that intersect here, and his expert analysis will pinpoint what?s at stake for fans, teams, and the Triangle.?
Donnelly is a rising star in the sports media industry, having recently led highly-rated daily morning and afternoon radio programs in Norfolk-Virginia Beach and Blacksburg, Virginia. He also fills in as a weekend host on the national CBS Sports Radio network.
Prior to his media career, Donnelly was a decorated athlete, playing quarterback at the University of Delaware. He began at Delaware in 2009 as a preferred walk-on and earned the starting role by his junior year with the Blue Hens.
?I am tremendously excited to join the Capitol Broadcasting Company family and the Triangle sports community,? says Donnelly. ?My family and I have connections to North Carolina and the local sports scene. I am thrilled for the opportunity to do what I love in a community that is such fertile ground for sports fans.?
Afternoon drive on 99.9 The Fan will also feature the talents of local favorite Dennis Cox, who will produce the show and take on a larger on-air role alongside Tim. ?The market knowledge Dennis brings to The Fan is invaluable,? said Grube. ?His love for sports and enthusiasm for Triangle teams shines through every day. His leadership will be critical in shaping the new show, which will move fast, hit hard and deliver unmatched local sports coverage to our passionate fan base.?
Donnelly?s role at Capitol Broadcasting Company will expand beyond afternoon drive on 99.9 The Fan. He will also contribute web content and analysis on WRALSportsFan.com and original longform audio content for the Capitol Broadcasting Podcast Network.
