WBAL (NewsRadio 1090/FM 101.5) and WIYY-FM (98 Rock)/Baltimore name Valerie Preactor as sports anchor/reporter. Beginning Monday, she'll provide sports updates during mornings, as well as report on the Baltimore Ravens, Orioles and Navy Football. A Baltimore native, Preactor previously served as a sideline reporter for ESPN+, production assistant for NBC Sports Washington, and most recently as a programming assistant for 98 Rock.

"It's surreal," said Preactor. "To be the new sports reporter for the radio stations I grew up listening to is really full circle. I'm thrilled to be covering my hometown teams that I love so much already! I'm excited to get to work and have fun, while continuing to grow in the radio and sports broadcasting industry. Your Baltimore sports are in good hands."

"As the official broadcast partner of the Baltimore Ravens, the Baltimore Orioles and Navy Football, nobody covers more sports like WBAL NewsRadio 1090/FM 101.5 and 98 Rock," said President & General Manager Dan Joerres. "We are thrilled to welcome Valerie to our market-leading sports staff."
