In celebration of Women's Empowerment Month, KGMZ-FM (95.7 The Game)/San Francisco morning show host Kate Scott will join an all-female broadcast of the Golden State Warriors' game vs. the Chicago Bulls on Monday, March 29, as part of the station's flagship coverage of the team. Scott will handle play-by-play duties alongside fellow broadcaster Mary Murphy, who will serve as color commentator. NBC Sports Bay Area's Kerith Burke will host pre- and post-game coverage of the broadcast on 95.7 The Game.

"I can't thank the Warriors and 95.7 The Game enough for this incredible opportunity," said Scott. "As a play-by-play announcer, you dream of getting the chance to cover the teams you grew up cheering for, but more often than not those dreams never realize. So, as a lifelong Warriors fan, to be given the opportunity to call Bulls vs. Warriors and get to share this special night with two talented women who I'm lucky to call dear friends... it's unimaginable."

"I am excited for Kate [Scott] to have the opportunity to highlight her amazing talents," said 95.7 The Game Brand Manager Matt Nahigian. "She is a true professional and a shining example of breaking barriers in an industry that is male dominated. The KGMZ team is proud to have her as one of our leaders, and we look forward to celebrating her achievements now and to come."

Scott, a longtime Bay Area radio and television personality, is a host of "The Morning Roast" on 95.7 The Game and has worked as a play-by-play announcer, anchor, host and reporter for the Pac-12 Networks in addition to play-by-play assignments for NBC Sports Networks and Stadium. Scott served as play-by-play announcer for the first ever all-female NHL broadcast in the U.S., is the first woman to call an NFL game on the radio and the first woman to call football for the Pac-12 Networks.
