A pioneer in the field of sports entertainment and broadcasting, Webster Groves native Greg Marecek founded Sports Network Incorporated, where he produced programs for the St. Louis Cardinals, the Big Eight Conference, the PGA TOUR, St. Louis University, among others. In 1993, he founded Spirit Sports and continued the tradition of broadcast excellence by producing shows for CBS and the NCAA. In 1998, he, along with a group of investors, purchased 590 AM and 100.7 FM KFNS, the all-sports radio stations in St. Louis. These stations tripled their ratings in the first five years of Marecek’s leadership and quickly became the #1 sports stations in St. Louis and were ranked as high as 28th nationally.
