House of Sport
All things LOCAL sports here in Knoxville, TN. Not stats and predictions, but real stories on who truly makes an impact on athletics in East TN. DICK'S House of Sport will be consistently hosting sporting events for the community, and I will talk all about those events on this show. See a full events calendar at dicks.com/houseofsportknx. The new DICK'S House of Sport (DICK'S Sporting Goods) at West Town Mall has a rock climbing wall, a HitTrax batting cage, three Trackman Golf Bays, a health & wellness area, and an outdoor turf field with an Olympic-grade track. Hosted by Casey Beaman at Dick's House of Sport in Knoxville
