WBRZ News 2 Louisiana : Baton Rouge, LA | Michael Cauble

Michael Cauble is the Sports Director for WBRZ News 2 Louisiana. He joined the WBRZ team as a sports intern in September 1997.

Michael’s father was in the Air Force, so he lived all over the world. But he was born in Bitburg, Germany. As a child, he lived in Phoenix, Arizona and Washington D.C.; Michael attended high school in Ramstein, Germany. He graduated from LSU with a Bachelor of Arts in broadcasting and a minor in history in 1998.

Michael’s love for broadcasting began in high school, where he was an anchor for his school’s morning announcements on closed-circuit television. Having found a way to combine his interests in broadcast and sports, Michael says, “I feel lucky to wake up in the morning and live every man’s dream job.”

After finishing his one-year internship at WBRZ, while attending LSU, Michael began working in the Operations Department. He quickly made the jump into the news department, and then rose to news editor. Later, he became the night side assignment editor. In May of 2000, Michael realized a lifelong dream and began his career in the Sports Department as a reporter and sports photographer. Just four years later, after watching LSU’s football team win the national championship, Michael was promoted to Sports Director. In 2009, The Associated Press awarded Michael 3rd place honors for Best Sportscast. In 2008, he was awards 2nd place in the category.

Michael resides in Baton Rouge. When not covering sports, Michael likes to unwind by watching movies and working in his yard. He also enjoys anything relating to LSU sports, especially Tiger football and baseball. On October 15, 2009, he married Lori Cauble and now has one stepdaughter. He planned the wedding around an open date for LSU.
