Stamford, Conn. - December 2, 2013 - NBC Olympics announced today that Dan Patrick, Rebecca Lowe, and Lester Holt will serve as hosts for its coverage of the XXII Olympic Winter Games from Sochi, Russia.

"We are excited to add Dan, Rebecca and Lester to our roster of anchors," said Jim Bell, Executive Producer, NBC Olympics. "With wide-ranging experience, they will provide NBC and NBCSN viewers with news, insight and storytelling."

The trio joins previously announced Bob Costas, NBC's primetime and late night host, and Al Michaels, who will serve as host for NBC on weekend afternoons and NBCSN on weekdays.

Following is a closer look at NBC Olympics' three newly announced Sochi Winter Games hosts:

DAN PATRICK: Patrick, co-host of NBC's Football Night in America, the most-watched pre-game show in sports, will host NBCSN's extensive live weekday and weekend coverage from Sochi. Patrick previously hosted NBC's daytime coverage at the 2012 London Olympics and served as a reporter in Vancouver in 2010. Patrick hosts The Dan Patrick Show, a daily, nationally-syndicated radio program which is simulcast as a television program on NBCSN and NBC Sports Live Extra, NBC Sports Group's live streaming product for digital, mobile and tablets.

THE OLYMPICS BEGIN FEB. 6, 2014

With more Winter Olympic events than ever before, competition for the 2014 Olympic Winter Games from Sochi, Russia, will begin one day prior to the Opening Ceremony. As a result, NBC will begin its primetime coverage of the 2014 Sochi Olympics on Thursday, Feb. 6, one night before the broadcast network provides its traditional primetime coverage of the Opening Ceremony on Friday, Feb. 7. This marks the first time NBC will air Olympic primetime coverage before the Opening Ceremony. The primetime broadcast on Thursday, Feb. 6, 2014, is scheduled to include competition in snowboard slopestyle (men's and women's), in which two-time gold medalist Shaun White is expected to compete in slopestyle's Olympic debut; team figure skating, which is also in the Olympics for the first time; and women's freestyle moguls.
