Marco's Bio
Ever since he was a little kid people have told Marco Romanell that he was born to be a sportscaster. A passionate Orioles, Ravens and Terps fan, Marco often impressed people twice his age with his knowledge of local sports. Despite having a degree in Sports Management from Towson University, Marco started bouncing in between jobs outside of the sports media field but he was not happy. His big break came when a friend of his asked him to a co- host a weekly High School Sports radio show, and from there things started to fall in place. Marco currently writes for Press Box and the Capital Gazette in Annapolis which has helped him get some contacts and credibility in the media. When he listened to WNST and heard about the opportunity that Nestor presented he submited his resume not knowing what to expect. After getting selected to participate in the King of Baltimore Sportstalk Competition, Marco got to live his dream for two months, culminating in a second place finish in the competition. Marco Romanell is finally getting to do what he dreamnt about his whole life; share his opinions on sports with the greatest sports fans in the greatest sports city in the country.
