Voice of the Shockers Mike Kennedy takes us through a retrospective on his career with audio clips of memorable moments from men's basketball and baseball.
We start in the 1980's, journey through Jim Audley's throw in 1991, the 2006 and 2013 NCAA Tournaments and wrap up with a
Kenyon Giles highlight. Kennedy, retiring after baseball season, started on the radio with Shocker basketball and football in 1980. We discuss his memories, his partners, his process and more.
Kennedy will retire at the end of the baseball season as radio voice of the Shockers.

Since then he's been the main voice of the Shockers on the radio, also doing ESPN+, for volleyball, men's basketball, baseball and assorted coaches shows.
