Along with the games, the Winterhawks will use the online network to broadcast team-related content 24 hours a day, seven days a week. Fans can find the station by visiting winterhawks.com and clicking the “Listen Live” link at the top of the page. In addition to the online network, most of the team’s Friday night games will be aired on Freedom 970 AM.

In addition, the Winterhawks are also announcing that Todd Vrooman and Andy Kemper are switching roles on the broadcasts, with Vrooman taking over play-by-play duties for all broadcasts home and away, while Kemper will be the analyst for all home games and select road games.

 



Todd Vrooman, Radio Play-By-Play

Todd Vrooman begins his first season with the Winterhawks' broadcast team as the play-by-play announcer, and third in the booth after two seasons as the color analyst.
Vrooman has also been hired by the Winterhawks full-time as the broadcast communications manager, responsible for all content that will appear on the team’s live365.com station.
 
Vrooman is the son of long-time Winterhawks radio play-by-play announcer Dean “Scooter” Vrooman.

 





Andy Kemper, Radio Analyst

Andy Kemper returns to the analyst's chair for team broadcasts in 2011-12, where he began in 2004 before beocming the play-by-play voice for several seasons.

A native Oregonian, Kemper attended the first-ever Winterhawk game in October of 1976 at the age of 10 and was hooked. After over 20 years as a fan and season ticket holder, Kemper joined the broadcast crew as the color analyst in 2004-05 working alongside Dean "Scooter" Vrooman. When Vrooman retired prior to the 2007-08 season, Kemper slid over to the play-by-play chair.

A self-proclaimed "stats geek", Kemper tracks a variety of statistics that help add another depth to his broadcasts. In addition to his hockey radio duties, Kemper also works full time as a software salesman in the electronic design automation market.

Kemper resides in Hillsboro with his wife Vicki and daughter Aiden.
