Lindsay Joy | FOX31 Denver

Lindsay Joy joined the FOX31 and Channel 2 sports team in July of 2018 as a sports reporter.

Born and raised in Rancho Santa Margarita, California, Lindsay fell in love with sports at a young age. The daughter of a Kansas Jayhawk alum, she grew up watching plenty of college basketball and soon became a fan of all sports. But her love for college basketball grew even stronger when she attended Gonzaga University in Spokane, WA.

Since graduating from Gonzaga with a degree in Broadcast Journalism, Lindsay has worked as a sports reporter and anchor all over the country. From covering the Cowboys in Wyoming to the Cavaliers in Charlottesville, she has seen plenty of great (and sometimes not so great) games. Lindsay eventually moved back to Spokane, where she had the chance to cover her alma mater’s 2017 run to the national championship game. She also covered Mike Leach and the Washington State Cougars, a beat that was never boring.

Lindsay is thrilled to be in the Mile High City and is always on the lookout for great local sports stories. If you have any ideas, questions, or just want to talk about Zag basketball, you can find her on Twitter (and sometimes Facebook).
