Jun 18, 2021 | Baseball, Football, General, Men's Basketball
NEW ORLEANS – Tulane University Athletics and Learfield IMG College, its multimedia rightsholder, today introduced Corey Gloor as "Voice of the Green Wave" and director of broadcasting.
Gloor will begin calling play-by-play for Tulane football, men's basketball and baseball concurrent with the 2021-22 college athletics season. In addition to live play-by-play broadcasting during Tulane games, Gloor will help produce a wide variety of content for the athletic department, including coaches shows, podcasts, videos and other digital offerings.
"Corey is a rising star in the broadcasting industry that brings a strong perspective of our league to the radio booth and I am excited to welcome him to Tulane," Ben Weiner Director of Athletics Troy Dannen said. "Throughout the search, it was clear that Corey wanted to be part of the Green Wave. He brings great energy to his broadcasts and I know our fans will enjoy listening to him for years to come."
Most recently, Gloor has spent the last six years as the radio play-by-play broadcaster for East Carolina University baseball on Learfield IMG College's Pirate Sports Network. During those six years, Gloor called four of ECU's NCAA postseason tournament runs.
"I'm very appreciative to Troy Dannen, Jana Woodson, Tulane Athletics and Learfield IMG College for this opportunity to be "The Voice of the Green Wave," Gloor said. "Tulane Athletics has a rich history and tradition to share, and I'm looking forward to engaging new and existing Green Wave fans as we work to tell the great stories occurring with our student-athletes and coaches. I cannot wait to get to Uptown!"
Gloor brings over a decade of experience as a sports radio broadcaster, including play-by-play broadcasting and studio production within the Learfield IMG College network. From 2014-18, Gloor produced and hosted football and basketball radio broadcasts on the TCU Sports Network. In addition, the Rockford, Illinois, native produced and hosted basketball radio broadcasts on the Gator IMG Sports Network during the 2016-17 campaign.
"We're excited about Corey joining the Tulane family," said Banks Shepherd, general manager for Tulane Sports Properties, the local Learfield IMG College team dedicated to the Green Wave. "Corey brings a wealth of relevant experience in our own conference and understands the importance of using his platform to connect with Green Wave fans. We're confident he will be a great ambassador for Tulane Athletics and our corporate partners as he gets settled in New Orleans."
Gloor began his broadcasting career in Janesville, Wisconsin, where he served as a co-host for 'Jock Talk', a nightly sports talk show. He also served as the play-by-play voice of the Beloit Snappers – Single A Affiliate of the Oakland Athletics. Gloor received his undergraduate degree from Northern Illinois.
