Dr. John Mark Dempsey

A&M-Commerce Marketing Communications /
Commerce Tigers Play-by-play Announcer

John Mark Dempsey is an associate professor of radio-television at A&M-Commerce and head of the Department of Mass Media, Communication and Theatre.  He works part-time as a news announcer-producer for the Texas State Network in Dallas.  Dr. Dempsey was the first student to broadcast on KETR and the first to broadcast Commerce Tigers football on the station.

Commerce Tiger Football

Broadcasts begin at 6pm with upbeat tunes and info about upcoming games in Northeast Texas!

At 6:30, The Big Friday Night Scoreboard Program is on the air, running down upcoming games and talking to area sports writers and coaches prior to kickoff. Likely the most involved high-school pre-game program around!

Kickoff is at 7:30, with play-by-play and color commentary of the Commerce Tigers, interspersed with live updated scores from games around the region.

After the game, pick up the phone and call 800-882-KETR, as The Big Friday Night Scoreboard Program rolls along, taking calls from players, cheerleaders, coaches, parents, band members and fans!
