Sport: Broadcasting

Mohammad Khosroshahi is currently studying towards an Advanced Diploma in Sports Management at Humber College and is deeply involved in working for Humber’s Athletics Department. He started at Humber in 2015, having previously studied radio broadcasting at Seneca College, where he also has experience with on-air hosting. Mohammad wears many different hats while working for the Athletics Department, primarily working in sports information and play-by-play commentary for Humber Hawk sporting events, while also occasionally writing stories for Humber Hawks Sports.

His interest in sports is not limited to working on the sidelines either, as he previously played high school basketball while attending Alexander Mackenzie High School in Richmond Hill. Outside of sports and radio, Mohammad has an interest in music production, as well as a strong self-focus toward community outreach and youth development. He has previously volunteered for the Run for the Cure Marathon and aspires to one day work for Maple Leaf Sports & Entertainment, as well as continue his dedication toward youth development and explore coaching.

Stefan Gerardi, a journalism student at the University of Guelph-Humber, brought an enthusiastic and unique point of view to Humber Athletics. He has used the written word to shine a light on the incredible accomplishments of Humber student-athletes, helping to keep Humber the most visible athletics program in the country.

Jake took over last year as the voice of the Humber Hawks, sitting in the public address chair for Humber Hawk home games. This is the same chair that has featured broadcasting greats such as Herbie Kuhn of the Toronto Raptors and Aris Xenarios of Toronto FC. His experience, and more so, the outstanding job he did, has spurred him on to heading to the Radio Broadcasting Program at Humber College. He has returned to the broadcast chair this year and has taken over an even larger role. Just recently, he was the voice of the 2016 OCAA Men’s Baseball Championship hosted by Humber and competed for at Etobicoke’s own Connorvale Park. He can also be heard on the live streaming of all Hawks home volleyball and basketball games.

Jake has an incredible sporting background to support his broadcasting endeavors. Prior to his current program, he was a student in the three-year Sport Management Program. As an athlete, he is entering his fourth year on the Hawks Cross Country Team and was crowned a national champion a few short years ago.

Ever since she was a young girl, Darryn O’Malley has dreamed of being a sports reporter.

Growing up, Darryn was not only an avid sports fan, but she was a dedicated athlete as well. From hockey to softball to soccer, it seems there isn’t a sport Darryn hasn’t played. Whether it was on a skating rink, hard court or grassy field, she loved to compete.

Even when she wasn’t on the playing field, Darryn still dedicated her time to sports as she was passionate about the journalism-aspect of athletics.

The only television she watched was sports highlights, and most of her reading material was sports-related. She even loved combing through statistics and numbers.

Darryn was a sports reporter for Humber College’s newspaper, Humber Et Cetera, where she covered everything from games to events to player profiles and features. She also served as the executive editor of SCRIBE Magazine, a student-run Toronto-based magazine. She recently completed an internship at The Globe and Mail, Canada’s national newspaper, where she spent her time as a sports and news reporter, covering the Toronto Raptors and Toronto Argonauts.

Darryn is honoured to be the recipient of the Etobicoke Sports Hall of Fame George Gross Award for Journalism. She is incredibly grateful to those who nominated her for the award, and she is thankful for the many opportunities Humber College has given her.
