Fellow Chronicle writer Peter Dewey (right) and me (left) prior to Quinnipiac men’s basketball’s game at the Nassau Coliseum in New York.

I began working for the student-run school newspaper, the Quinnipiac Chronicle, within my first weeks on campus in 2016. I was quickly elevated to Associate Sports Editor after my first year (April 2017), then Sports Editor the next semester (December 2017). My jobs as Sports Editor included posting all sports content (recaps, features, etc.) online, assigning my staff of 10 writers to cover games each week and coordinating interviews with athletes through SIDs for feature pieces.

After a year running the sports section, I took a managing editor role as Web Director, which allowed me to oversee the entire group and online publication. This included editing and posting all written content on our website and on social media platforms (Twitter and Facebook). While serving this position, I retained my role as men’s basketball reporter and covered sports when needed.

Some of my fondest memories include road trips with my fellow sports writers to cover men’s and women’s basketball games.

Senior forward Chaise Daniels will be taking a personal leave from the Quinnipiac men’s basketball team, effective immediately, according to a statement by head coach Baker Dunleavy.

“At this time Chaise Daniels is taking a personal leave from our men’s basketball team,” Dunleavy said via Twitter. “Our program will continue to support him through this process.”

Daniels, a four-year starter from Meriden, Connecticut, was the Bobcats’ second-leading scorer at 13.7 points per game and third-leading rebounder at 4.6 per game.

It is unclear how long Daniels will be away from the team, but Dunleavy’s statement left the door open for a possible return.
