BROOKS HILL, FPHL BROADCASTER OF THE YEAR

Binghamton, NY – The Federal Prospects Hockey League today announces its selection for the FPHL Broadcaster of the Year. This Award of Excellence for Broadcasting is determined in a vote of league broadcasters and media relations directors across the league.  These selections are from a voting process by (2) representatives from each FPHL member club and then a verification by the FPHL League Staff.   

The FPHL Congratulates Brooks Hill  as the 2023-24 FPHL Broadcaster of the Year. Hill is the Director of Media Relations & Broadcasting for the Binghamton Black Bears.

“On behalf of the entire Black Bears organization, I am happy to congratulate Brooks on winning Broadcaster of the Year,” said Black Bears team owner Andreas Johansson. “We strive to bring success and professionalism to our organization in every aspect and Brooks is the perfect example of that.”

The Wake Forest, NC native joined the Black Bears in October of 2022 after serving as the play-by-play broadcaster of the Wilson Tobs baseball team in the Coastal Plain League. Brooks has now broadcasted over 100 games with the Black Bears over the past two seasons, along with being the host of the Tully’s Good Times with Coach Show.

"This is an incredible honor to receive this recognition from the league,” said Brooks Hill. “I am very thankful the Black Bears gave me this opportunity in 2022 to get my start in hockey. I'd like to thank my broadcast partners, Alex & Cole, for helping me out on the broadcast the past two years; Josh Williams and the entire video team who make me look and sound better than I actually am. Coach Brant Sherwood and the entire team have been extremely welcoming in the locker room and on the road, making this chapter of my life that much more exciting. And I wanted to give Trevor, Bobby, EJ and Kelsie the recognition they deserve for all the hard work they do in the front office each and every day. Without them there is no Black Bears hockey and I am thankful for all the friendships I have made since moving to NY."

The FPHL is a Single-A Minor Professional hockey league operating in its 14th season during 2023-24
