Ronnie Wald

For Ronnie Wald, 2010 will mark his 29th year in sports play by play. Called a "real pro" by former NBA coach Rex Hughes, Wald is fresh off his sixth CIF final at Angel Stadium and the WIAA baseball finals at Safeco Field (Seatlle), which thousands listened to on waldcast.net. Ronnie has also broadcast for Cal State Fullerton, Pepperdine, San Diego State, Cal State Northridge, University of San Diego, UC Riverside, Seattle University and "around the world" on the Armed Forces Network, among others.

Now in his 5th decade in broadcasting, his credits include three NCAA tournaments, six NCAA regionals, nine COA state finals, Big West Tournament, WAC Playoffs, CIF Girl's Basketball Final (Arco Arena), College Baseball World Series (Div. II) and the NAIA Basketball Championship in Kansas City (where he broadcast a record 7 games in one day!)

Ronnie, a former student body president, is a graduate of Cal State Northridge and L.A. Pierce College. Also, he can be found in laradio.com's prestigious listing of all Los Angeles' radio personalities for the past 50 years. In 2003, Ronnie and Waldcast.net were honored by the California State Legislature for an "exemplary record of community service" and "professional leadership" in over two decades of broadcasting in the Golden State and from the LA Community College District, Wald earned the "Chancellor's Distinguished Honor Award." He is also a 20-year member of the American Sportscasters Association.

Says former Oakland A's, NBC and World Series broadcaster Monte Moore, "Ronnie is a credit to sports broadcasting. I am always proud to make a positive statement about him and his very impressive Waldcast.net."
