On March 3, the Waterloo Bucks announced Luke Vera as the team’s play-by-play broadcaster for the 2026 season. Vera, who resides in Des Moines, Iowa, will be on the air for all of the team’s home broadcasts which will air FloSports’ FloCollege platform.

Originally from Des Moines, Iowa, Luke graduated from St. Ambrose University in December of 2024 with a Bachelor of Arts in Digital Media Production and Sports Management. Last summer, he served as the broadcast/media relations intern for the Cedar Rapids Kernels. Before joining the Kernels, he called high school baseball and softball for the Raccoon Valley Radio Network in Perry, Iowa.

“I’m thrilled to join the Waterloo Bucks this season as the team’s play-by-play broadcaster,” said Vera. “I have looked forward to Opening Day every year since I started playing at four years old, and this year is extra special! I can’t wait to get behind the microphone to bring the story of the season to the Waterloo community and Bucks fans everywhere from inside Riverfront Stadium!”
