The People of Penn State

Live from the Sidelines with Lisa Salters

Penn State Alumni Association Season 5 Episode 96

In this episode of The People of Penn State podcast, we sit down with Lisa Salters (’88 Com), an Emmy-winning sports reporter with more than 30 years of experience. As the longest-tenured sideline reporter in Monday Night Football history and a familiar face on NBA broadcasts, Salters has built a trailblazing career in sports media.

Lisa reflects on her early days as a news reporter, her transition into sports broadcasting, and the lessons she’s learned while covering unforgettable moments on the sidelines. She also shares stories from her Penn State years, both in the classroom and on the basketball court as a Lady Lion.

Tune in for an inspiring conversation about resilience, adaptability, and breaking barriers in the sports media world.
