Rowan Radio to broadcast Glassboro High School football games

Beginning this fall, fans of Glassboro High School football will be able to hear play-by-play of the Bulldogs in action on Rowan Radio, 89.7 WGLS-FM.

Rowan Radio will broadcast all 11 of the Bulldogs' home and away games, beginning with Glassboro's season opener at Clayton on Saturday, Sept. 16.

All broadcasts will be heard in real time over the internet at wgls.rowan.edu or as a podcast. While most of the games will be broadcast live on the radio, a few will air the same day via tape delay due to conflicts with coverage of Rowan University football and soccer, according to Frank Hogan, general manager of WGLS.

"We're happy to provide this public service to the Glassboro community," Hogan said. "It's a winning situation for Rowan students, the University, Glassboro High School and the borough."

With a potential audience of almost 1.3 million people, WGLS-FM broadcasts a variety of musical, cultural, and educational programming 24 hours a day. The broadcast signal covers South Jersey, as well as parts of Philadelphia and Delaware.

"It's terrific that Glassboro Football will have the opportunity to get this type of exposure," said Jeff Cusack, assistant principal for athletics and athletic director at Glassboro. "I'm happy that we can provide Rowan University students with the experience of applying the knowledge they have acquired in their studies. This type of hands-on experience is outstanding. Glassboro Athletics is proud to be a part of WGLS broadcasting."
