The station hired Jacob Lenzendorf as a sports anchor/reporter just prior to posting this opening for a sports director.

They still don't list a sports director on their website.

The only other sports person is Caelan McGee (Culver-Stockton College). He is a sports anchor/general assignment reporter. He started at KTVO in 2019 working in the production department before moving over to the news and sports teams in February of 2020.
