Jack Evans is appointed VP/Programming & Operations for Broadcast Company of the Americas/San Diego. He replaces Hal Brown, who is retiring at the end of June. Evans will oversee programming for Sports XEPRS-AM, Business Talk XEPE-AM and Oldies XHPRS-FM. Previously, he served as VP/Programming for GAP West until his position was eliminated last year.

CEO John Lynch said, "Hal Brown has provided a solid base from which to grow the BCA stations. I am saddened to see Hal retire. "However, Jack Evans is one of the top programmers in the country. I have competed against Jack for many years and his intensity, his creativity and commitment to winning is second to none. Hal leaves things in good hands with Jack Evans."

Evans added, "I'm truly honored for the opportunity to work with John Lynch and the team at BCA. Looking at the successes Mr. Lynch has had over the years, I am comforted to know there is still an owner of radio stations committed to local content for communities."

Evans, a 25-year programming vet, started with Jacor, before Clear Channel acquired the company in 1999. During that time, Evans served as Senior VP/Programming, Midwest & Rocky Mountain Regions.
