CLINTON, IOWA - The Clinton Lumber Kings are happy to announce the hiring of Conor Fredland as the Director of Broadcasting and Media Relations.

 

Fredland, a Western Illinois Graduate and Chicago native, will call all of the play-by-play action of the upcoming season. LumberKings games will be broadcast live on WCCI 100.3 FM and simulcast on Prospect League Television (www.prospectleague.com).

 

Fredland brings a plethora of experience to the Lumber Kings, most recently working for the Florence (KY) Y’alls of the Frontier League – a Major League Baseball Partner League.

 

Prior to that, Fredland was one of the main voices for the Western Illinois Leathernecks, calling volleyball, basketball and baseball on ESPN+ and WIUS 88.3 FM, Macomb, IL.

 

The veteran broadcaster spent the past six seasons broadcasting baseball throughout the Midwest and New England areas of the country.

 

“I can’t wait for the season to start. NelsonCorp Field is historic. So many great players have come through here,” said Fredland. “I have heard the fans in Clinton are great, and it makes a broadcast so much better when the audience is electric.”

 

The 2022 Season Opener is Wednesday, June 1st here at NelsonCorp Field versus the Normal CornBelters. Game time is at 6:30 pm.
