Alumni Spotlight - Brent J. Zorich

Championship-level friendship

Best buddies Tony Castricone and Brian Boesch had a lot to say leading up to Monday’s College Football Playoff national championship game between Washington and Michigan.

Castricone, a 2000 St. Charles graduate from Centerburg who worked at WBNS radio from 2005 to 2010, is the play-by-play radio voice of the Washington Huskies. Boesch, from Medina, hosts the pre-game, halftime and post-game shows for Michigan, as well as doing play-by-play for Wolverines men’s basketball.

The pair graduated from Ohio University and were roommates while working in Winston-Salem, North Carolina.

“Brian is like a brother to me,” Castricone said in an article posted on the Ohio website.
