WTTR Sports Team

Charlie Beckhardt
Sports Director
|
Charlie got his start at WTTR in 1980, completely by chance, while still a senior at Westminster High School. After stints as a weekend and fill-in announcer, and later a news reporter, Charlie was given the opportunity to call his first high school football game. That was back in 1984, and he hasn't stopped since - a span of almost 200 games over three different decades. Later he was named WTTR's Sports Director. He has also handled the play-by-play for WTTR's coverage of high school basketball and entered his 20th season in that capacity in December 2005. Charlie has a true, lifelong passion for local sports (he's been keeping score at Orioles games since he was six years old). He also enjoys coaching Little League Baseball, playing golf, and listening to a wide range of music. He has a bachelor's degree in computer science from Towson State University, and lives in Finksburg with his wife, Cyndy, and their son, Jacob. |

Sports Reporter/Announcer

Bryan has worked at WTTR since 1987. He began as a part timer working Saturday evenings and covering High School Basketball games as a color commentator. Along the way he has been the station's Traffic Director (1990-91) and Business Manager (1993-1998). He currently announces High School and College basketball and football games and occasionally goes out on the road and works remote broadcasts. He still helps MC the Athlete of the Year banquet (he hosted the Wednesday morning program for nine years) and MC's the annual Birds Are Back Party every April. He has in the past worked several air shifts including the Mid Day show for 3 years and was a fill-in during other times of the day and in the news room. In the past Bryan has covered sporting events as a play-by-play announcer for Comcast 10 in Frederick and hosted a show called "Sidelines". "Sidelines" featured the Frederick Keys and Frederick County high school and college teams. He also worked for Channel 3 in Carroll County for 16 years. He was the Sports Director for nine years, anchoring sports on the nightly newscasts and handled play-by-play duties on the Game of the Week. He also hosted "Sidelines" and a live show "Locker Room Talk" with co-host and ex-Baltimore Colt Tom Matte. Bryan is a graduate from Westminster High School and he received a degree in Mass Communications from Towson State (now Towson University) in 1989. He lived in Westminster from 1978 until 2005. He now lives in Hanover, PA with his wife Beth and dogs Putter and Bogey. His interests include sports, golf, walking, reading and traveling.
