Darek
Sharp born 4-11-70, grew up in Plant City, started in radio his
senior year at PCHS (1988) doing a Saturday night show at the
PC radio station 910 WPLA. Worked part-time (running board for
Cincinnati reds games and other sports events though they were
a country music, later easy listening music).
Then in 1990 they became Sportsradio 910 WFNS,
either the 1st or 2nd sports station in Florida. Continued along
part-time until he graduated from Florida Southern College in
December 1991.
Station moved to Tampa in October '90, that's
when the Sports Babe came on board and Darek produced her show.
Worked there straight, just as a board op, until Sept. 1996 when
the station was sold.
Months before it was sold to WSUN, 620.
Sports Animal formed then in Jan. '97, Sharp finished up at WSUN
as they had to play out the Lightning season. Those last two Lightning
seasons he did pre-game / intermission stuff, first real steady
on-air gig! Hired as overnight dude (bet you don't remember that)
at WFLA in April '97, four months later Jeff Fisher took that job
so Darek could move on the Sports Animal. He was Duemig's producer.
Then in March 2001, he took over as morning Sports Attack guy. That's
where you will find Darek Sharp now! (Jan 2003)... |
