@wmbdnews Anchor @ 5,6,9 &10. Host of WMBD News Sunday Morning & WYZZ’s GameDay Live. Co-Host of the CI Sports Zone Podcast. @firstdecatur. @ohiou, @woub grad.
Some breaking news:
Starting next week I’m back on the television screen!
I’m very excited and blessed to be joining the @WMBDNews team. I’ll be joining Rebecca Brumfield on the anchor desk for the 5,6,9 and 10 pm newscasts Monday through Friday.
“TV Thomas” is back!
I jokingly told Patrick he’d me a morning anchor someday when I first met him 3 years ago… now here we are.
While I will miss him terribly at work, I’m so happy he’s earned an opportunity to be one of the faces of our station in a new way!
🚨LIFE UPDATE🚨
Today starts my final week as the WMBD Weekend Sports Anchor
I will be staying at the station, but moving to morning news anchor on June 10
It’s the hardest decision I’ve ever made because telling stories of Central IL & working w/ Kurt has been a great honor
Our station (and industry) has had a lot of ups & downs the last year.
This past high school football and basketball season has delivered some moments our area communities will remember forever.
Without a doubt my favorite year of chasing highlights 🎥
Saturday at CEFCU Arena in Normal will go down as one of the brightest days in Central Illinois girls basketball history.
Washington (3A) and Dee-Mack (1A) each brought home their respective program's first girls basketball state title.

Pleased to share our @CISportsZone podcast has been nominated for an Illinois Crystal Mic for "Best Small Market" Podcast!
We launched it during high school football season and are proud of what it's turned into! @Chusligreport@jondog237@pmc3_83@burgerfromitaly
Grant and @andrew_bowlby did an absolute fabulous job covering Ohio football (and all athletics) for @BobcatShowcase.
They’ve taken the sports department at @woub to the next level.
Us alums are proud of you guys!
Hope you soaked in your last assignment, you never forget it!
The grand finale of my time covering games at OU, and what could be the end of an era, ends in Frisco, Texas.
What a venue this is. I like the idea of a smaller venue for a bowl game to make it feel like a more intimate environment. The Ford Center should deliver.
Have a night, Ky'veon Chestnut!
Not 1...not 2...but 5 rushing touchdowns in Bloomington's 57-26 opening-round win in the 5A playoffs! @BHSRaiderSports

Special night for us @WMBDNews. Took home 3 awards including Station of the Year via the Illinois Broadcasters Association.
What an honor. I’ve got a great home and some outstanding teammates.
We’re just getting started!
Excited to share I've been nominated for a Silver Dome Award by the @inbatweets for "Best Investigative Report". It was a story that we poured everything that we had into, and I'm so honored it's getting recognized. Our station is also up for "Station of the Year." Big time!
GREAT things happen to people who work hard and are passionate about what they’re doing!
Gabe bleeds green and white and is the perfect guy for the gig!
Some news: I’m honored and grateful to say I’ve accepted the Director of Broadcasting position at Ohio! To return to Athens is a blessing and I can’t wait to tell the stories of @OhioBobcats athletes and coaches once again. Let’s roll!!!
