The panel show will air Sundays at 11 p.m., immediately after “Joe Trahan's Sports Special.”
DALLAS — In September 1999, WFAA launched a new high school sports program following Sunday night's “Dale Hansen Sports Special.” “High School Sports Special” he put WFAA into a league of its own in high school sports coverage. Over the years, we have served countless student-athletes and their parents, as well as many communities across North Texas.
However, after 25 years, “High School Sports Special'' has come to an end.
WFAA's acclaimed high school sports coverage will continue, but it will be absorbed into the station's larger commitment to covering North Texas' ever-evolving athletics landscape. This includes Joe Trahan's “High School Game Night” on the 10 p.m. news on fall nights, Mike Leslie's live “Friday Night Football” and “Tuesday Night Hoops” digital broadcasts, and, of course, regular feature stories and WFAA originals about high school heroes from across Dallas-Fort Worth.
The “High School Sports Special” on WFAA's Sunday night programming will be replaced by a new sports panel show featuring rotating casts from WFAA sports teams and the local sports world. “The Ultimate Dallas Sports Show” airs Sundays at 11 p.m., immediately after “Sports Special with Joe Trahan.”
The Ultimate Dallas Sports Show, hosted by WFAA sports anchors Joe Trahan, Mike Leslie and Jonah Javad, and produced by WFAA's Andrew Selley, brings you to the moment in the North Texas sports world. Discussions will focus on the hottest topics. The show starts this Sunday, April 7th.
