My name is Ryan Zimmerman.  I am also the radio voice of the University of Vermont women's basketball team.  In addition to my play-by-play broadcasting, I conduct and produce on-air interview segments for live broadcasts as well as write and deliver reads for the program's sponsors.

For the last two seasons, I was the Director of Broadcasting and Media Relations for the Gary SouthShore RailCats of the American Association of Professional Baseball (MLB Partner League).  In addition to providing play-by-play coverage on 95.9 WEFM and American Association Baseball TV, I am responsible for writing game notes and postgame recaps, composing press releases, creating and updating the team's media guide, overseeing content creation and distribution, and designing graphics for social media.

​

Prior to my current work with the RailCats and the University of Vermont, I was a Broadcasting and Media Relations Graduate Assistant at Delta State University in Cleveland, Mississippi.  I was the voice of the men's soccer team, men's and women's swimming and diving teams, a fill-in voice for men's basketball, and co-host of the school's weekly radio show.  I also handled many media relations duties including game previews, recaps, and Athlete of the Week articles as well as managing each team's social media account.

​

I graduated from the University of California, Berkeley in 2020 where I broadcast Golden Bears football, men's and women's basketball, hockey, and baseball.  As the Assistant Director of Sports Programming at 90.7 FM KALX Berkeley, I hosted Bear Talk, a weekly talk show centered around Cal and Bay Area sports.  While I was in school, I worked for various teams in collegiate summer baseball including the Cotuit Kettleers (Cape Cod Baseball League) in 2020 and the Sanford Mainers (New England Collegiate Baseball League) in 2019.
