Jacob Lenard

I was born and raised in southeast Kansas. After high school I pursued my Bachelor of Science Degree in Communication at Pittsburg State University, graduating in December 2012.

​

In May of 2013 I started as a part-time News Assistant at KOAM-TV in the Pittsburg, KS/Joplin, MO market. I eventually worked up the ladder at the same station to become Sports Director in June of 2015.

​

Sports have always been a big part of my life, from playing, to coaching and now broadcasting. Sports taught me how to be competitive and work hard as a kid, things that have stayed with me through my professional career.

​

I currently live in Pittsburg, KS with my wife, our son and our dog. In my free time I like to play the drums and guitar, play golf and spend time with my family.
