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.

Opinion | Defining sports dominance

Dominance, how does one define it?

In sports, dominance can be measured in a number of ways. Some think athlete dominance is based on the number of championships one wins, while others believe individual statistics are what make an athlete dominant.

The fact of the matter is that dominance should be measured using a combination of championships and statistics, as well as performance in the clutch and overall importance to his or her sport. When you think of a sport, you generally think of one single player as the face of that sport.

On Tuesday, March 20, ESPN’s Peter Keating released his ranking of the most dominant athletes of the last 20 years. Keating used a five-step method to measure the dominance of each athlete.
