Veteran Sports pR & Broadcaster Alex Reed

Thanks for stopping by! I kind of consider myself a Hockey Swiss Army Knife, having happily worked as a PR/Communications/play-by-play broadcaster and team services director for the past 20 years.   My experience in the game includes stints in the AHL, ECHL and QMJHL.  I am currently the Director of Communications and Team Services for Zawyer Sports & Entertainment, which includes the ECHL's Jacksonville Icemen.

I am grateful to have been selected to several on-air events such as at the 2019 & 2022 ECHL All-Star Classics which both aired nationally on the NHL Network. I was also chosen to be the play-by-play voice of the 2015 Tampa Bay Lightning Prospects Tournament which also included the Florida Panthers, Nashville Predators and Washington Capitals.  I was twice named Sportscaster of the Year by the West Virginia Associated Press Broadcasters Association.  Two years ago, I was also the recipient of my current company's "Unsung Hero Award."  

Throughout my journey I have accrued additional knowledge and experience in football & baseball play-by-play, hockey media relations, community relations, press release writing, video production, voice-work, sales, marketing and team/travel services.  During the pandemic, I was forced to miss a season away from the broadcast booth, but served as the Icemen's Video Coach, editing game film and assembling clips for the team's pre scout. 

   I have accrued experience from a long career, that has shaped me into  a well-rounded team member. My personality meshes well with any staff, players, coaches and fans.
