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.

From Los Angeles to Arizona to…Hamden?

For Quinnipiac men’s basketball senior guard Cam Young, that’s been the journey.

At the first two stops, basketball came easy to Young. He graduated from Westchester High School in Los Angeles in 2014 after becoming a first-team all-conference varsity player his senior year, leading the team to a 30-7 record.

From Westchester, Young moved up to Arizona Western, a junior college team that has produced NBA talent, including Hall of Famer Nate “Tiny” Archibald and Brazilian center Rafael Araujo.
