Wildcats on the Air For the sixth year, the Davidson Radio Network is proud to bring you Davidson basketball action through the voice of playby-play announcer John Kilgo. He is known throughout the Carolinas for his work as the executive producer and host of North Carolina football and basketball television coaches’ shows for 13 years, as well as radio call-in shows with Dean Smith and Bill Guthridge. He also coauthored the memoirs of Dean Smith, A Coach’s Life. After graduating from UNC Chapel Hill in 1957 with a degree in journalism, Kilgo was a columnist for The Charlotte News for 10 years prior to becoming Davidson’s first full-time sports information director in 1966. Kilgo’s service in radio is well-documented. The news and sports director for WAYS Radio for 18 years, he did play-byplay of UNC Charlotte games from 197682, including the 49ers’ NIT finals game in 1976 and their NCAA Tournament run to the Final Four in 1977. Kilgo also did play-by-play for the professional football team in Charlotte for three years, as well as Davidson’s football game in the Tangerine Bowl in 1969. All of Davidson’s games, including the season opener at Duke, can be heard on WFNA, 1660 AM out of Charlotte, WFNZ, 610 AM out of Charlotte, or WAGI, 105.3 FM out of Gaffney, S.C. In addition, the broadcasts can be heard via TEAMLINE at (800) 846-4700, ext. 1143, and on the internet via TEAMLINE on the Davidson web site, www.davidson.edu/athletics.
