You read it first on Gateway City Radio. Prime-time on KMCI Channel 38 will become Sports 38? KMCI news at 9 will end on July 25th to make way for a 1/2 sports show at 7pm Monday -Friday. This makes sense with all of the sports KMCI seems to be nailing down. Basketball games from KU, K-State, MU, I-70 Speedway Racing, Kansas City Wizards Soccer and the addition to receiving 14 Kansas City Royals games. Sports Director Jack Harry, Leon Liebl and Lisa Holbrook will be involved in this new sports program along with other sports figures. This will not be a highlights show but more of a sports magazine/talk show involving live guests, produced pieces, viewer call-in and discussions between the hosts. The name of the show has not been named nor a final date to air. More information to follow soon.
