Dan Hammer leaving Midco Sports for KFGO

According to Brad Schlossman of the Grand Forks Herald, Dan Hammer will be leaving Midco for KFGO Radio in Fargo., ND...

There will soon be a new play-by-play voice calling UND athletic games on television.

Dan Hammer is leaving Midco Sports Network to accept a job as a talk radio show host on KFGO in Fargo, multiple sources have confirmed to the Herald.

It is possible Hammer will still finish this season calling the remaining men’s hockey, men’s basketball and women’s basketball games that are scheduled for Midco Sports Network, but that still appears to be undecided.

Hammer will take the 2-5 p.m. KFGO time slot previously occupied by Mike McFeely, who left the station last month to return to WDAY and Forum Communications. An official announcement is expected soon.

I have gotten to know Hammer over the last couple of years and he's a very solid guy and will be missed by many. Hammer is a high energy guy that brings a lot of enthusiasm to the broadcasts.
