The Sunday Night Sports Wrap is a weekly episodic sports talk radio show on WGAO88.3 FM Franklin, Massachusetts. The show began in the fall of 2006 but really took shape during the winter of 2007; more specifically on February 25, 2007.

The Sports Wrap covers primarily New England Sports teams, as well as Dean College sports. It has become Dean College's longest running sports show in the radio stations thirty plus year history; where the panel is most well known for their borderline raunchy sense of humor.

The beginning
The Spots Wrap was established by Dean College student Tom Nappi, and in the winter of 2007 he was joined by Jared Aldie, and Michael Marcangelo. John O'Donnell was also brought into the mix for his comedic perspective on issues, but was ultimately dismissed for his ridiculous antics and "moronic point of view". After the dismissal of John O'Donnell the Sunday Night Sports Wrap and panel was able to finish off the semester under close supervision.

One-year anniversary
February 17, 2008 marked the one year anniversary of the Sunday Night Sports Wrap and the show celebrated a historic campaign by the New England Patriots. During this two hour show Jared Aldie, and Mike Marcangelo reviewed the 16-0 season by the New England Patriots, and also discussed the NFL Playoffs, and Super Bowl XLII.

The Sports Wrap today
