South started her gig on Feb. 5. Once a week, she’s doing a live Q&A with morning show hosts Sean Kelly and Orlena Cain.
“I’ve been harassing them since September for the opportunity to do this,” said South, a graduate of Conestoga College’s journalism program who spent eight months as a part-time news anchor at 570News in Kitchener, Ont.
“The topic of our 90-second segment is college sports at Loyalist, so it’s keeping me on my toes,” said South, who’s also the game-night host for Belleville Bulls’ home games at the Yardmen Arena.
South says her dream job in sports journalism “is definitely not play-by-play. I’d rather steal Jennifer Hedger’s job (as co-host on SportsCentre) at TSN.”
