Jarrod Wronski (born October 18, 1977) is an American P. A. announcer, emcee, sports DJ, wedding DJ, and mobile DJ who has announced over 20 different sports from youth to professional. Jarrod is married to Spring Davis Wronski and together they have two children.

Jarrod began his announcing career at W. T. Woodson High School in 1992 while a student at the school. He began announcing baseball, but by the end of his sophomore year, added football and basketball to his resume. In the 1993-94 school year, he began announcing soccer, lacrosse, and wrestling before taking over as the voice of the basketball team by his senior year. While attending George Mason University, he would often return to his alma mater to continue announcing sports.

In 1998, he was hired by the Tampa Bay Devil Rays as the team's first DJ. While with the Rays, he also spent time as the P. A. announcer for the Tampa Yankees before accepting a regular job with the St. Petersburg Devil Rays. He would remain with the Florida State League team through the 2000 season when it was sold to allow for an equal number of teams at each level of Minor League Baseball. Ironically, this did not take immediate effect, and he would eventually work for the Modesto A's in 2002, while the Oakland A's had two affiliates in the California League.

Jarrod has announced for the Washington Glory of National Pro Fastpitch and USA Hockey national championship tournaments. He currently works in game operations for the Washington Capitals of the National Hockey League while also serving as the Game Producer for the Stagg Bowl, NCAA Division-III men's basketball national championship (where he is also the P.
