By Hannah Wisterman Live Reporter At the Hitch, it is impossible to ignore that we are in Texas. Saturday afternoon lunches from half a dozen different cultures, the capricious and rather unforgiving early summer heat, and the undoubtedly southwestern twang of each guitar and croon…this is the San Marcos experience for many.

By Asia Daggs Web Content Director On March 10, 2015, the harsh reality of drunk driving hit me hard by taking my grandmother away from my family and then again on March 19, 2017, when a childhood friend was taken entirely too soon. My grandmother was hit by a drunk driver as she was crossing the street in broad daylight. She owned an antique shop on the corner of that […]
By Andrew Wright Office and Traffic Manager Andrew Wright interviews Asia Daggs, the Web Content Manager for KTSW 89.9 for International Women's Day. Growing up with her two younger siblings, she feels that it has taught her many leader characteristics and the ability to handle difficult situations.
