WEEI 850 Boston announced today that they were making significant changes to its on-air personalities in hopes of stemming the tide from 98.5 The Sports Hub which has recently caught up to EEI in the ratings.

The following is a copy of a press release sent to Boston Sports Desk:

(Boston, February 15, 2011) -  Writing a new chapter in its 20-year history as the national sports  talk radio leader, the WEEI Sports Radio Network today announced a major  change to its afternoon drive-time show.

In a move that creates a “Dream Team” pairing two of Boston’s most  respected and entertaining personalities, Michael Holley, who has  co-hosted the midday “Dale and Holley” program on WEEI since 2005, is  moving to afternoon drive-time, joining Glenn Ordway for “The Big Show  with Glenn Ordway and Michael Holley.”  The program will air weekdays  from 2:00 p.m. to 6:00 p.m. and launches on February 28.

WEEI will be announcing details on a revamped midday show in the coming days.

Boston Sports Desk has learned that Dale Arnold, Holley’s current co-host will either be let go or given fill in duty around the station. Rumors have been circulating for the past few days that Lou Merloni and Mike Mutnansky will be taking over teh 10-2 slot.

SPELLMAN GIRLS SOCCER TAKE TITLE

Posted: November 22, 2009 in Other

I want to give a shout out to the Cardinal Spellman girl’s soccer team for their Division II State Soccer title. The Cardinals are led by coach Mike Perry. By far, one of the nicest people you could ever meet and someone you’d want to coach your high school student.

Kate Silva scored off a Chelsea Barbetto corner kick early in the second “sudden victory” overtime to deliver the Cardinals, 2-1, over Wahconah Regional (16-4-2) at Foley Stadium.

“It feels absolutely amazing,” Silva said of her winning strike after the game. “I just squished my way in, tried to go through people. I got it with my whole body”

Congrats again to the Court Street Kids and Mike Perry !!!
