The daughter of a high school football coach growing up in the suburbs of Chicago, Victoria Carmen has only known that sports and family are synonymous which is one of the reasons she wanted to pursue a career in sports.

Her journey as a sports reporter and anchor has taken her to Wyoming, Ohio, Florida, upstate NY and now she continues that journey in Greenville, SC as the news anchor for Fox Carolina News where sports continues to be one of her loves.

Live moves so fast that most of us only focus on what's next but once Roy Philpott truly understood the importance of being great where you are in life he began to see how this would guide him on his path to follow his passion becoming a play-by-play broadcaster.

Now he's living that dream as an ESPN play-by-play broadcaster and you can even find him on SiriusXM as a sports talk radio host as well.

ESPN Senior Writer Andrea Adelson has been able to flourish in a male-dominated industry because of her belief that strength is power and the importance of setting goals which include even having incremental goals.

After telling her dad as a kid that she wanted to be a sports writer, Andrea would attend the University of Florida before she would embark on her career with various stops ultimately landing with ESPN where you can find her covering colleges sports with an ACC emphasis.

Sports talk radio host and play-by-by broadcaster William Qualkinbush understands that in life there will be times that we must choose a side but he also believes that sometimes the answer to which side you choose can simply be yes.

Currently, you can find him co-hosting "Out of Bounds" from 12-3 PM each weekday with Kelly Gramlich heard on 105.5 & 97.5 The Roar while he also serves as the radio play-by-play voice for Clemson baseball and women’s basketball.

Jonathan Gantt has experienced the power of paying it forward throughout his life from his mentors which is why it's so meaningful for him to do the same in his Associate AD/Creative Solutions role at Clemson University where he's been helping lead the digital transformation for Clemson Athletics beginning in 2013. His team’s work has helped the Tigers earn recognition from Forbes, Sports Business Journal, Sports Illustrated, and others.

He would begin understanding the power of social media and digital content while working for Ripken Baseball and the Tampa Bay Rays in media relations roles before helping Clemson Athletics become a nationally recognized leader in social and digital content.

Show Notes:

• Bryton had the unique experience of being at Clemson pre-pandemic and then during the pandemic
• Had dreams of playing in the NFL but he never let it consume him and does regret not enrolling at IMG Academy because he thinks about what could have been at times
• Knew after the third time when he tore his ACL in the same knee that he would no longer pursue playing the game that he loved
• The decision to stop playing was based on his understanding of the importance of having a long-term vision mindset and thinking about 40-year decisions instead of the here and now
• Never had a true relationship with his biological father and it does matter but his mom raised him by herself and they are truly best friends
