The Cromwell Group has launched a brand new sports talk radio station. Victory 103.9 has launched in Mattoon, Illinois. The brand will be anchored by NBC Sports Radio, and feature “Pro Football Talk Live” with Mike Florio as its morning show.
The radio station will also feature Charleston High School football. Rob Calhoun and Jack Ashmore will call the action.
“Victory 103.9 will allow us the opportunity to put more high school students on the radio, with play by play action for volleyball, junior high basketball and other local sporting events that you typically don’t find on the radio,” says General Manager Luci Englum.
You can find Victory 103.9 on Facebook, Twitter and at the website, www.myradiolink.com.
