Seward County Broadcasting Sports Director Brock Kappelmann and family were in Kansas City Wednesday as he received the Hod Humiston award in conjunction with the Kansas Association of Broadcasters Sports Seminar. Kappelmann was selected by his peers for the prestigious honor which is given each year to a deserving sports broadcaster for their contributions to sports broadcasting for both radio and television.

Past winners include Bob Davis, KU play-by-play, Fred White, Royals radio and television basketball commentator, and Mitch Houltus, current voice of the KC Chiefs to name a few.

The award was presented during lunch at the seminar which was being held inside Kaufmann Stadium, the home of the Royals.
