20/20 Visual Media and Partners Recognized with 2026 Telly Awards
20/20 Visual Media and its partners have been recognized with two 2026 Telly Awards for its excellence in video and television.
20/20’s sister company SportsTown Media was honored with a Silver Telly Award in the “Series - Travel & Tourism” category.
SportsTown is an original TV-style production backed by 20/20 and founded by Rob Czyzewicz, Patrick Rosenbaum, Dan Koob, and Rudy Mezzy.
The production is centered on the crew’s journey to find the best sports city in America. Its six episode first season took audiences to Lexington, KY, Savannah, GA, Philadelphia, PA, Kansas City, MO, Phoenix, AZ and Indianapolis, IN. The crew visited iconic sports environments like Rupp Arena, the WM Phoenix Open, and Indy 500 and immersed itself in the food, attractions, and entertainment cultures of each destination.
20/20’s longtime partner, Little League International, was recognized with a Bronze Telly in the “General-Sports” category for its 2025 feature, “Honoring the Memory and Legacy of Mikey Stovall”.
The feature was produced by Little League and Philadelphia production company 20/20 Visual Media. It told the heartbreaking yet inspirational story of Mikey Stovall, a dedicated husband and father, who tragically died in the 2025 Potomac River mid-air collision between an Army Black Hawk helicopter and an American Airlines regional jet near Washington, D.C.
The video centered on the Stovall family, who were left to pick up the pieces after the tragic accident, and the members of the community who have rallied around the family to help them heal. Mikey Stovall was beloved, serving as a volunteer baseball coach for his son’s Little League team.
He left an indelible mark on not just his family, but on dozens of kids who dream about playing baseball. His philosophies about having fun, leading with kindness, trying hard, and community service perfectly embodied the core values of Little League.
