Adam Cumbee

Adam got his start in sports journalism and sports broadcasting at the University of Wisconsin-Whitewater where he was fortunate enough to cover several national championship teams. He was also the Color Commentator and pre/post-game interviewer for the Columbus Blue Jackets' ECHL affiliate, the Chicago Express, in their one year of existence. Adam fell in love with hockey at a young age and grew up a Chicago Blackhawks fan despite them not being on television at the time.
