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.

Chaise to 1,000

Putting a ball in a basket. Seems easy, right? Wrong.

Hundreds of men’s basketball players have suited up for Quinnipiac University. Thirty-nine of them have scored 1,000 points, and only 13 have scored those points at the Division I-level. Senior forward Chaise Daniels joined that exclusive club on Sunday with a signature bulldozing layup.

Daniels has made the most of putting the ball in the basket. Even after scoring 1,000 points, Daniels still finds himself standing in an empty gym after practice shooting free throws.

“He’s really attacked any challenge we’ve given him and that’s all you can ask for as a coach,” Quinnipiac head coach Baker Dunleavy said. “Like when you see him working on his free throws extra right now, he’s just been really open to the idea of getting better.”
