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.

Quinnipiac Athletics to have increased presence on ESPN3

There is growing speculation that the Quinnipiac Athletics department has an agreement with ESPN to air an increased number of games, specifically ice hockey and basketball, online through ESPN3.

Most notably, in a tweet highlighting a Quinnipiac men’s hockey game against No. 13 Boston College and a women’s hockey game against Providence, Quinnipiac Athletics mentioned that a “full slate of QU games on ESPN3 coming soon.”

Additionally, Director of the Ed McMahon Mass Communications Center Pete Sumby conveyed an important message in an email addressed to Quinnipiac School of Communications students on Sept. 5.

“We have a unique opportunity this year with our Basketball and Hockey games and ESPN3,” Sumby said in the email. “The Athletic department is looking for [4 to 5] students to run camera for each basketball and hockey game at the TD Bank Sports Center during the season on a freelance basis…This is a great opportunity for some camera operation and to work with ESPN.”
