(St. Louis, MO) – When the Missouri Valley Conference added Valparaiso to the basketball fraternity, we knew we would have to get to know coaches, players, writers and broadcasters. Writer Paul Oren of the Union Street Hoops podcast has written some things for our site and today, we get to know play-by-play broadcaster Todd Ickow.
A 26-year veteran of Vaplo basketball broadcasts, Ickow has seen the Crusaders win conference titles, run to a Sweet Sixteen appearance in the NCAA Tournament (they played that Sweet Sixteen game here in St. Louis). He’s watched them move into and out of the Horizon League and is personal friends with the entire Drew family.
On our latest version of ‘Voices of the Valley’ here is our interview with our new friend, Todd Ickow.
Todd is just another of the great Voices of the Valley!

Three more road wins so far in @ValleyHoops as @BradleyUMBB @BelmontMBB & @UIC_MBB capture road wins. Looks like @DrakeBulldogsMB will do so too. #FatherHarry
Well @RacersWBB followed the men's example and swept Iowa in the @ValleyHoops race! Racers are 6-1 & if @BelmontWBB holds on to their Iowa sweep, the Bruins and Racers will be tied for first. What a trip for those two teams! #FatherHarry
After today's action, @EIUWBB is 8-0 in @OVCSports play. 4 teams @usiwbb @TTUWBB @LRTrojans @LindenwoodWBB are tied at 6-2. Six other teams are under .500. Great race to the finish lies ahead. #FatherHarry
Really entertaining game between @BelmontMBB & @UEAthletics_MBB. Under four minutes left in a one point game. Gabriel Pozzato back in the Aces' lineup. Rogers is playing like I've expected. Triples are dropping. It's fun and @kylejpeach bringing it on #ThePlus #FatherHarry
