DENHAM SPRINGS HIGH SCHOOL BASKETBALL IS ON THE AIR!
Jon Fine (Sports) Productions will be airing a select slate of Denham Springs HS Boys and Girls Basketball games and all playoff games in 2025!
These broadcasts can be seen on You Tube @dsjacket vision (please Subscribe), on Family Radio-91.9 FM Baton Rouge and on the Internet at JonFineProductions.com (click Listen Live on the Denham Springs HS PBP page). Sport-n-Center Jackets Warm-Up gets the broadcasts underway 45 minutes before tipoff. The first broadcast is Friday, January 24 when the Jackets Girls entertain Walker HS.
With the success of the Denham Springs Football Broadcasts, which expanded to accommodate @dsjacketvision during the 2024 season, it was an ideal time to add Boys and Girls Basketball to the lineup.
Josh Ward is the play-by-play announcer of the Jackets. Ward will be joined by Mitch Covington as the color commentator. Producer Jon Fine will contribute to the pre-game, half-time and post-game programming. This trio has announced Denham Springs HS Football games for several seasons.
