WVAS-FM, the “Voice of Alabama State University”, will launch a new homegrown sports show on March 8th at 6 p.m. Titled “Open Court with Derik Williams”, the 30-minute program will provide insights on all things HBCU/ASU sports as well as high school athletics. The program will feature a variety of coaches, current and former athletes, analysts, experts, and influencers who will offer their perspective on the show’s topics each week. In addition to its on-air presence, it will also be seen “live” on WVAS-FM’s Facebook page.
“I want to use my knowledge and passion for sports to give listeners a different way to look and think about this entire arena,” states host Derik Williams (aka “D-Will The Coach”). The show will also feature Druski Hall, a WVAS volunteer announcer, who will provide insights on all things HBCU/ASU sports. The program will include segments like “Ballers & Busters”, “HBCU Sports Review”, and “Inside ASU Sports”.
