From East Texas
press boxes to
international baseball.
I’m Merv Moore, a journalist, editor, and international baseball coach with nearly four decades of experience. My career began covering five county high school athletic programs at the Houston County Courier.
Since then, I’ve led newsrooms, published a community newspaper, contributed to national sports platforms, and coached the Swiss National Baseball Team. I bring that reporting experience and inside-the-game perspective to every assignment.
