Paul Loeffler
Paul Loeffler is now Sports Director at KMJ, and feels
privileged to follow in the footsteps of legends like Lon
Simmons, Bill Thompson, Gus Zernial, and Bill
Woodward as the “Voice of the Bulldogs.” Paul has been
handling the play-by-play for the Fresno State baseball
team since 2001, and was thrilled to be behind the
microphone in Omaha when the Diamond Dogs won the
College World Series championship in 2008. He’s even
written a book about that.

A Los Banos native, Paul returned to the San Joaquin
Valley after graduating from Syracuse University in 1998.
He and his wife, Tonia, have been blessed with two
darling daughters, Avery and Mallory, who have both
grown fond of the red licorice in the Beiden Field press
box.
Spending nearly a decade as a sports anchor and
reporter at Fresno’s CBS affiliate, Paul has filled a
variety of roles on television, including an annual
assignment with ABC and ESPN for the Scripps National
Spelling Bee. Translating his award-winning television
work with World War II veterans into radio, he has
hosted Hometown Heroes on KMJ since October 2007.
Airing Sunday afternoons at 4 p.m., Hometown Heroes
shines a spotlight on history through the voices of those
who lived it, those who fought on the frontlines of
freedom.
