A three-time Emmy Award winner, Craig Fouhy is sports director and sports anchor at ABC15.

Craig gives Valley viewers his unique coach’s perspective on the world of sports. Known for his honesty, Fouhy isn’t afraid to share his opinion during his popular “Fouhy on Sports” and “In The Ring” segments.

He also enjoys spotlighting our youngest and brightest in his “Fouhy’s Small Stars” segments, one of our most popular and longest running segments here at ABC15.

Craig graduated from Pacific Lutheran University in Tacoma, Washington, majoring in education, with minors in political science, history, and coaching.

He spent 18 years coaching college and high school football, both as a head coach and assistant coach. He was the running backs coach at the University of Montana and the head coach at North Park College in Chicago. Some of Craig’s best football memories are when he took over at North Park College in the mid-80s as the head football coach and ran the “spread, no huddle offense.”

He joined ABC15 in 1998, and during his tenure, he has served as a morning news anchor, co-host of our popular morning show Sonoran Living, host of our Sunday Night sports show “Sports Sunday”, our Cardinals show, “Monday Night Live,” and he has hosted DIY segments for our parent company, E.W.
