Suffolk Sports Hall of Famer Chris Fallica guest lectured as part of our educational partnership with Port Jefferson High School’s sports history class.

Fallica, who was inducted to the Suffolk Sports Hall of Fame in 2022, is a longtime research associate and betting analyst at ESPN. He is seen every weekend during the fall on ESPN’s highly rated College GameDay show.

A Moriches native and Westhampton High School alumnus, Fallica spoke to the class about his day-to-day responsibilities, dove into his journey in sports media and offered advice to students about working in sports. He did the Zoom chat from Clemson, where College GameDay was filmed the following day.

There will be monthly guest speakers with connections to the Hall of Fame, all offering deep insight into sports history, business and media.

• Chris Vaccaro, Suffolk Hall of Fame President
