Eli comes from WALA, the Fox affiliate in Mobile, where she has been a sports director and anchor since May 2013.
“We’re really excited that we got her out of Mobile and we think she will be a great asset,” KPRC senior executive producer Rick McFarland told McGuff. “Not only does she have great sportscasting experience, but I think people are going to be interested in watching her.”
