We are pleased to announce Joe Trahan, the Lead Sports Anchor at WFAA in Dallas, TX, as the keynote speaker at the TSLF Annual Meeting. 💙

Joe joined Channel 8 in June 2003 and has been a fixture on the local sports scene for more than half of his nearly 30-year career in local television news.

The native Houstonian began his career in 1989 while he was still in college. During his senior year at Loyola University New Orleans, he worked the overnight shift as a news writer on WWL-TV’s highly successful morning show.

Joe’s on-air sports career began at WCBD-TV in Charleston, SC and included a return to New Orleans for a 9-year stint at WVUE-TV where he was named Sports Director.

Since joining WFAA, Joe’s covered title runs from the Rangers and Mavericks including the Mavs magical run that ended with a championship in 2011. He’s still waiting on something similar from the Cowboys and Stars.

Joe covers the gamut of sports but readily admits following the NFL is his favorite. “It’s seemingly never a dull moment when you cover the Cowboys,” he says. Joe says they’re controversial and compelling and that’s “good for business.”

He also likes sharing stories that highlight the best in people. Finding examples in sports that illustrate the triumph of the human spirit are his favorite.

Joe and his wife Amy and their two daughters Sophia and Sydney live in Frisco. When not spending family time, you can find Joe on the links, working on his golf game.

We cannot wait to host Joe at the TSLF Annual Meeting on May 8, 2024, from 11:30 a.m. to 1:30 p.m. at the Dr. Marcelo Cavazos Center for Visual and Performing Arts of Arlington ISD.
