Jason Longshore and Mike Conti will handle radio duties for Atlanta United’s games on 92.9 FM this season.

Longshore will handle analyst duties for the second consecutive season for the MLS team. Conti will begin his first season doing play-by-play. He replaces Adam Schick.

Longshore is a longtime soccer personality in Atlanta who runs the website soccerdownhere.com. Conti is managing editor of 92.9FM.

The team hasn't finalized who will call the broadcasts on Fox Sports South after it was announced that Alan Green, who called play-by-play last season, wouldn't return.

As part of the team’s renewed partnership with 92.9, club President Darren Eales will make weekly appearances on an afternoon show. Technical Director Carlos Bocanegra will make weekly appearances on a morning show.
