about.
Hey Everyone! Thanks for stopping by!
I'm Mary Reagan Bollig, a student at the University of Alabama. I will graduate in May 2026 with a Bachelor of Arts in Communication, double majoring in News Media and Sport Management.
I discovered my love for sports broadcasting during my junior year of high school when I took on the roles of director and on-air talent. During my freshman year of college, I was hired by Crimson Tide Productions. Through CTP, I’ve had the privilege of working as a sports anchor, sideline reporter, associate director, camera operator, and production assistant. CTP has given me the opportunity to further develop my skills in nearly all areas of the field.
I’ve worked on broadcasts for ESPN+, SECN+, SECN, ESPNU, and ESPN2, as well as in-venue broadcasts for Alabama’s Athletic Department.
I am a member of the on-air team and an associate director for Crimson Tide Productions and the SEC Network. I’m also well-rounded in other aspects of the field, including being part of the Engineering team. I have extensive experience in photography/videography, studio hosting, producing, writing, Adobe platforms, communication, reporting, social media management, and leadership.
Throughout my college career at Alabama, I’ve developed skills like public speaking, storytelling, building meaningful relationships, and learning how to manage the unpredictability of the sports broadcasting world.
Whether it’s hosting Tide TV This Week, being out on the sideline, counting out of breaks in the control room, or staying up until midnight building cameras for the next show, being an active part of my community is paramount.
I am an ambitious sports reporter driven to succeed in both local and national markets while engaging diverse audiences.

Crimson Tide Productions has been an incredible, invaluable out-of-the-classroom experience. From setting up cameras to associate directing both SEC digital and linear shows, and working on-air, I’ve truly grown in all aspects of the field. I’ve also loved and appreciated the work environment and the relationships I’ve built with my colleagues. They constantly push me to be my best—both inside and outside the control room—and I’ve been fortunate to form meaningful connections with ESPN directors, producers, and on-air talents like Rece Davis, Laura Rutledge, Molly McGrath, Roman Harper, Holly Rowe, and Katie George.
This past spring, I was honored to receive the "CTP Versatility Award." This award is voted by the full Time staff at Crimson Tide Productions. I was recognized for my work in almost all areas through broadcast including Camera, AD, On Air, Engineer, and even Editor. This award was one of five of the highest awards a student can receive. I’m so thankful for all the incredible experiences and memories I’ve had at CTP, and I’m proud to have taken on a greater role by being a part of the Leadership Team for the second year. Here’s to another successful year ahead!

My love for media extends beyond sports. Throughout my life, I’ve enjoyed creating recap videos from trips I’ve taken—all of which are shared on my YouTube channel. While some people collect souvenirs when they travel, I collect mine through video and memories. I have also started to build my brand on TikTok covering sports as well as just content producing.
Outside of sports, I also work as a freelance videographer. I’ve created content for bands like Nether Hour, Congress The Band, and Pitbull producing videos for their social media platforms. I’ve also given back to my high school by producing, filming, and editing hype videos and feature pieces that are played at home sporting events.
I served as the Marketing Director for the Chi Omega Nu Beta chapter at the University of Alabama, where I oversaw the chapter’s presence across all social media platforms. My role included collaborating with the executive board to create engaging graphics, Instagram posts, stories, and TikToks that showcased our chapter’s events and culture. I also produced high-quality videos for the chapter, including the Convocation video, which was presented to an audience of over 2,000 attendees.
