Kasey Marler - Sports Reporter / WJHL

Email: kMarler@wjhl.com

Time flies when you're having fun. My family has been enjoying Northeast Tennessee since 2004. I am the father of two beautiful children. Trey was born in 2003. Eva was born in 2006. My wife Julie takes care of all of us. Not an easy job considering my wacky schedule. When I'm not at work I enjoy spending time with my family, playing golf, and working out.

I began my broadcasting career in my home state of Nebraska. My first job was creating a half hour weekly sports show for Time Warner Cable in Lincoln, Nebraska. I also spent a year at ABC affiliate KLKN. My career continued at KHGI in Kearney, Nebraska where I was the Sports Director. Prior to moving to the Tri-Cities I spent two years as a sports reporter at KJRH in Tulsa, Oklahoma.

I've been lucky to report on some of the biggest events in sports including several college national championships. My favorite part of the job is featuring local athletes and their accomplished.
