750 The Game in Portland has hired former 95.7 The Fan in South Bend, IN Program Director/Morning Host Mike “Ragz” Ragozino as their new PD and afternoon host, starting on September 8th.
Ragozino made the switch to the Sports format after programming and hosting at Classic Rock station WNNJ/Newton, NJ and WAOR, which flipped to Sports in May 2012.
Ragozino said, “When I got into this business, from the start it was always about taking a new challenge head on, without fear of failure, having fun and most importantly, entertaining the audience. Joining Alpha Media and more specifically, 750 The Game offers me a chance to do what I love for an incredible company, in a beautiful city that has the same passion for sports as I do.”
