Missouri Sports Network

About Us

The Missouri Sports Network was founded by long-time Missouri high school and collegiate basketball coach Darin Archer.  Coach Archer’s idea of promoting the scores, stories, and accomplishments of the Show-Me state’s athletes, coaches, schools, fans, and communities at all levels began to take shape and materialize in April of 2021.  The first person Coach Archer reached out to was his friend and long-time southwest Missouri on-air sports personality, Guy Newcomb.  Affectionately known throughout the state as the “Scoreboard Guy”,  Newcomb founded and created some of the most popular sports shows in the region with his High School Scoreboard Show and the High School Highlight Show on ESPN radio affiliate Jock 98.7 in Springfield, MO.  Newcomb has become a mainstay in southwest Missouri and the state for bringing the latest news, updates, and scores throughout the Show-Me state.  Both Archer and Newcomb are former collegiate athletes at Southwest Baptist University in Bolivar, MO, and have been involved in high school and collegiate athletics in Missouri for a combined 60+ years.  Archer and Newcomb collaborated to bring a host of talented individuals to realize the dream of bringing all things sports, at all levels, to the Show-Me state.
