Minko, DeMarco shift duties on the Army football radio team
The Army football radio announce team will see some major shifts this fall. John Minko, the play-by-play voice for the past 10 years, will co-host the Army Football Tailgate Show, along with Bob Outer — between them, Minko and Outer have called all but two seasons of Army football since the mid 1970s.
Minko asked for reduced duties following some health issues in the past year.
“I am happy to remain part of the West Point family and to broadcast from Black Knights Alley,” Minko said.
Rich DeMarco will move from sideline reporter to the play-by-play role. Tony Morino has been named the new sideline reporter. Morino has been the long-time voice of Army hockey on radio and has shared Marist basketball TV broadcasts for Time Warner Cable in recent years.
Nikolai Busko takes over the hockey radio duties, along with some baseball and lacrosse action.
There was no word on the status of long-time radio color analyst Dean Darling.
