Jerry Schemmel Biography
2015 marks the sixth year for Jerry Schemmel as one of the radio voices of the Colorado Rockies. He teams with Jack Corrigan on flagship station KOA in Denver. He is also one of the television voices of Mountain West Conference Basketball on Root Sports.
Schemmel was the broadcast voice of the Denver Nuggets for 18 seasons, from 1992 to 2010, working radio and television. His sportscasting career spans nearly 30 years and includes extensive radio and television play by play of both professional and major college sports, including a stint as the Radio Voice of Colorado State Rams. He also spent one year as deputy commissioner and legal counsel for the Continental Basketball Association.
Schemmel is the author of the book, "Chosen To Live." "Chosen To Live" chronicles his survival of the crash of United Airlines Flight 232 in Sioux City, IA, in 1989 and its subsequent effects on his life. The book has been featured in such publications as Reader’s Digest, Hoop Magazine, Sports Spectrum and Guideposts. He is also the author of "The Extravagant Gift," an evangelistic outreach booklet. He has also been featured on several national programs, including an extended feature piece on ESPN in 2009.
In addition to completing three marathons and nine triathlons, Schemmel twice rode a bicycle across the United States, as a fundraiser for two Denver area charities. The efforts raised a total of $250,000. He remains active in cycling, both competitively and with charity rides. Schemmel spent one season (2009) as the Head Baseball Coach at Metro State College of Denver, after being a volunteer assistant at the school for two years. The team finished with a record of 28-24. He has also been a college assistant at Colorado Christian University.
Schemmel earned a law degree in 1985 from Washburn University, after receiving his undergraduate degree from the school in 1982. He also played baseball at Washburn and later was an assistant coach at the school for three years.
Schemmel grew up in Madison, SD, and now resides in Littleton, CO, with his wife Diane. They have 22-year-old daughter, Maggie, and a 15 year old son, Ryan.
