Still a work, this page will give you a look at the voices of WCSTSorts.

GEOFF

Geoff started with WCST while he was a freshman at Berkeley Springs High School in 1995. He would help his father, Bill Fox, and “The Ironman” Mike Fagan do the call of the Indians football games that year and would eventually become part of the broadcast team and take up broadcasting when he got to college. Though Geoff was not paid, he would help by carrying equipment, helping set up, or just be a spotter. After Geoff graduated from high school in 1999, he went on to attend West Virginia University with a major in journalism (broadcast sequence) in the Pearly Issac Reed School of Journalism.

During years at WVU, Geoff would come home some weekends and help his father do football games, usually when the Mountaineers were on the road. In the summer of 2003, Geoff interned at NBC25 in Hagerstown, MD. There Geoff got the hands on training of an everyday newsroom and what goes into making a newscast, something that would be needed that fall at WVU. While at NBC25, Geoff wrote two readers (a news item that doesn’t have a sound byte or video, just the anchor reading the copy) that made the five o’clock news cast. In the fall of ‘03, Geoff went back to WVU and took the BN386 class or the capstone class as it was the WVU News that went out statewide on WV Public Television. During his tenure with WVU News, Geoff covered the home football games, Midnight Madness and interviewed coaches John Beilein (basketball), Rich Rodriguez (football), Nikki Izzo-Brown (women’s soccer) as well as Quincy Wilson and players from WVU’s women soccer team. He was also on the field when WVU upset then #3 VaTech. Geoff graduated from WVU in August of 2004.

In 2004, Geoff rejoined WCST as the color commentator alongside his father, this time on the payroll. He has had the honor of broadcasting some great moments for the Indians. Among those moments include the football team’s first playoff appearance in 2005, the Indians/Blazers shootout in the Holiday Tournament where Berkeley Springs and Clear Spring combined for 180+ points in 32 minutes (8 minute quarters), 2007 Indians football team’s run in the playoffs and the 2007-08 girls’ basketball team which gave Dale McCumbee his first winning season and first trip to the state tournament.

In his free time, Geoff enjoys watching the Mountaineers, listening to music, and playing video games.
