There wasn’t a dull moment when Jordan Moore ‘01 returned to Pingry today to meet with a small group of students interested in sports media.
Jordan, Chief Creative Officer for University of Southern California (USC) Athletics, left nearly the entire session open to the students and what they wanted to know. Their questions prompted a wide-ranging conversation about the path that took him from calling minor league baseball and high school sports to leading USC Athletics’ social media work and serving as one of the Trojans’ radio voices.
He spoke candidly about why he loves his job, as well as its demands. Working in sports means long hours, nights, and weekends, he explained, so you have to genuinely love the work.
The session was led by student Andrew Hefner ’28, who launched sports broadcasting at Pingry. Andrew opened the conversation before inviting his fellow students to ask away. They came ready with questions, and the room was buzzing with energy from beginning to end.
A big thank you to Jordan for returning to Pingry and giving our students such an honest and engaging look inside the world of sports media!
