Kostas “Mak” Macarounis is a dynamic Greek sportscaster. His electrifying reporting has inspired people globally to visit the Arcadia 938 website and web radio program. Kostas is a native of Tripoli. His mother, retired educator/philologist Pitsa Gerou and father Chistos Macarounis, retired telephone administrator, have instilled in him a love for soccer. His late grandfather, local businessman Konstantinos Gerou, helped many families during the difficult years after WWII.

Kostas “Mak” explained, “we are happy and thrilled to live and experience Asteras Tripoli participate in the Europa League. Asteras Tripoli is not only important to Tripoli and Arcadia, but all of the Peloponnese and Greece. When I ask the players how they feel about playing for the team, they say they are blessed. We are all blessed to have Asteras Tripoli close to us”.

November 6th will be a unique moment for New Yorkers to meet with Asteras Tripoli at the Pan Arcadian Federation of America “Geros Tou Morea” annual Dinner dance at Terrace on the Park.
