Jon Emmerling- Future Sportscaster

I really don't understand how to write in broadcast style, so I wrote it more in a print style, but I can try and re-write it once I get a better understanding.  Other than that, I hope you all enjoy! :)

‪         Late July, on a hot, humid night, at the bottom of the sixteenth inning, Jon Emmerling enthusiastically proclaims to the people of Steubenville, Ohio that the Post 33 Legion Team is the new District 10 Champion! This was his most memorable experience. After interning as the Post 33 Legion Team’s Announcer for the summer, Emmerling recognized his love for sports broadcasting and decided to pursue a career in Broadcast Journalism.

‪         Jon Emmerling, son of James and LeeAnn Emmerling, was born in Wheeling, West Virginia. When he was only two years old, he and his family moved to the small town of Steubenville, Ohio, where his father worked behind the scenes at the local television station, WTOV9.

‪         At the young age of five, Jon was introduced to sports. Sports were a way for him to bond with his father and his two older brothers, Michael and Jake. Throughout his life, he has played baseball, football, and basketball for traveling competition teams. Jon also played baseball, football and basketball for his high school, Steubenville Catholic Central. John loves everything about sports: watching it, talking about it, and “just being part of the game.” Little did he know that one day, sports would play a major role in his career choice!

‪         As a sophomore in high school, Jon mentioned to his father that he was considering being a Sports Broadcaster. He had grown up watching his father, who had worked with many television stations. Excited and supportive of John’s dreams, his father introduced him to the E.W. Scripps School of Journalism at Ohio University. His father told him that he dreamed of attending Scripps when he was young, but due to the cost of out-of-state tuition, Mr. Emmerling opted to attend Penn State.

‪Today, Jon is majoring in Broadcast Journalism at the E.W. Scripps School of Journalism in hopes to become a Sports Broadcaster. At first, he was skeptical about his career choice, but after writing articles for Bobcat Sports Showcase and getting involved in the JFresh Newsroom, John is confident that he has made the right choice. One day you will be tuning into ESPN, and there will be Jon Emmerling, giving you the latest sports update!
