Whenever the Trojans play at home, it’s often 12-year-old Ethan Prendergast running the broadcast.
TROY, Ala. - The control room inside Trojan Arena is a busy place during Troy’s home baseball games. And the age of one of the technical directors getting those games on ESPN+ might surprise you.
When he’s not in the stands, Ethan can usually be found in the control room where the TV magic happens. This is where the young director cues up the broadcasts, tells his crew when to pop up graphics, switches cameras, runs replays and talks to people behind the scenes to keep the show running smoothly. Ethan described it as “giant switcher, giant room, lot of electronics, and it was just crazy.”Ethan doesn’t get paid by ESPN or Troy. He volunteers because he loves it.
Now whenever the Trojans play baseball, basketball or some softball games at home, it’s often Ethan running the show.
