Jimmie Guyton is Bulldogs' new guy behind the mic



After hearing 30 auditions from interested individuals in the Charleston community, The Citadel named Jimmie Guyton as its new public address announcer for Bulldogs basketball.

Guyton's hire caps a two-week search, during which potential announcers had the opportunity to try out Oct. 24 at McAlister Field House.

The Summerville native worked for nine years as a private disc jockey, and he has experience working as a public address announcer, most recently for softball and volleyball events at Ashley Ridge High School. Prior to that, Guyton served as the PA announcer for Fort Dorchester High School softball games. Guyton is a plant safety specialist for Alcoa in Goose Creek.
