The Voice of Rutgers Athletics, Lou Brogno, passes away at 62

Terrible news broke this past weekend as it was announced that Lou Brogno, the voice of Rutgers Athletics, had suddenly passed away on Saturday at the age of 62.

Brogno has done hundreds of broadcasts involving many Scarlet Knight teams over the past four decades. He began broadcasting Rutgers games in 1980s on TKR Cable in Piscataway. Since RU joined the Big Ten, Brogno has been the primary play-by-play voice for Rutgers basketball, wrestling, soccer, field hockey, gymnastics, lacrosse, baseball, and softball telecasts for Big Ten Network+.

”Lou was a beloved member of our Rutgers Athletics family,” said Rutgers Deputy Athletic Director Sarah Baumgartner.
