The AHL's ROCHESTER AMERICANS will be heard on ENTERCOM Sports WROC-A-W239BF (95.7 FM/950 AM ESPN RADIO)/ROCHESTER this season. All 76 games will air on the station, with DON STEVENS back for his 31st season calling AMERKS hockey and RIC SEILING as analyst; TIM SCHNEIDER will serve as pre- and post-game host. The AMERKS were previously heard on crosstown iHEARTMEDIA Sports WHTK-A (FOX SPORTS 1280)/ROCHESTER. The move to WROC bumps the NHL's BUFFALO SABRES to a new affiliate in ROCHESTER, ENTERCOM Classic Rock WCMF.
“The ROCHESTER AMERICANS are a wonderful community asset of which we can all be proud,” said ENTERCOM VP and Market Manager SUSAN MUNN. “ENTERCOM’s 95.7 FM/950 AM ESPN RADIO is excited to broadcast the games to long-time supporters and introduce them to brand new hockey fans in the region. We’re thrilled to wave the AMERKS Red, White, and Blue in ROCHESTER!”
“We are very pleased and excited for the opportunity to partner with ESPN Rochester and join the ENTERCOM family,” said AMERKS VP of Business Operations ROB KOPACZ. “The ENTERCOM group has been long-time supporters of hockey in ROCHESTER and we are looking forward to expanding that relationship to better serve our passionate fans within this community.”
