Wycheck will also continue to be heard on the Wake Up Zone with additional features during the Midday 180 and 3HL shows.
Dawn Davenport (pictured), former WKRN-News 2 and sports anchor, signs on to 104.5 the Zone’s 3HL show as co-host with Brent Dougherty and Mickey Ryan. 3HL airs weekdays 3-6 p.m. In her new role on 104.5 The Zone, Davenport becomes the first full-time female sports anchor on Nashville radio.
