A Native of Auburn N.Y., Matt moved to Shreveport with his brother Chris to work at Pierremont Oaks Tennis Club. In 1980 Centre Court Tennis Shop was created which evolved into Sportspectrum Inc. Growing from 1200 sq. feet to 8500 sq. feet over a period of 30 years, Matt built his dream store and present location in 2010.

In 1984 Sportspectrum Race Management was created and has produced 2000+ running, multi-sport, and cycling events to date. In 1993 Matt raised over $10,000 for the American Cancer Society “Dusk till Dawn” by running 60 miles, one for each year his Mom lived. Matt served on the ACS board for 10 years along with the Goodwill board.

After 35+ years Matt’s belief is still to promote a healthy lifestyle for the Shreveport-Bossier Community. Customer service, product knowledge, and an unprecedented retail experience is what Matt has strived for since day 1.

Andrew grew up in Covington LA and moved to Shreveport in 2016 when he began working for Sportspectrum. Andrew does a little bit of everything at the store and loves all things running. He loves to bring in the best shoes and products to help runners and walkers alike and training the staff to be the absolute best running store we can be!

There is not enough space to brag on Coach Trammel and list all of his achievements. From professional runner with Adidas and making two Olympic Trials to coaching high School State Champions and Collegiate All American and everything in between, Frank will tell you his greatest achievements are being married to his Bride Becky and the relationships he has built along the way. When he’s not selling shoes on the shoe floor, you can find him following his runners with his truck sipping on some sweet tea!

Sarah helps things moving efficiently here at Sportspectrum. Sarah is a master at shipping and receiving, making sure product comes in the backdoor and right to you in the quickest way possible. On weekends, she helps run the show as assistant manager. Sportspectrum is incredibly blessed to have Sarah’s creativity and attention to detail!

Hagos is one of the most genuine and personable guys out there. He is always wearing a smile and looking to help people at the store and when he sits down with you, get ready to get to know him. Outside of the store, Hagos logs a ton of miles running for BPCC XC and T&F so he has first hand knowledge of the shoes and apparel!

Liz is our marathon expert. Having finished 15+ 26.2’s, she understands the grind of training, the importance of nutrition, and the accomplishment of crushing big goals. But don’t be intimidated, just because she has the experience of a long distance runner doesn’t mean she can’t help you find the shoe or apparel to finish that first 5k. You won’t find a warmer, more patient lady to help you at Sportspectrum!
