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.

Runnin’ the Point: Stepping stone season for men’s basketball

The Quinnipiac men’s basketball team was never supposed to end the season where it did.

The Bobcats were picked to finish 11th in the MAAC preseason poll. They lost seven of their 14 players from last season. The starting lineup was filled with new faces.

Still, Quinnipiac made it to the final four of the conference tournament, the MAAC semifinals, before falling to Fairfield 74-64 on Sunday night.

“Anytime your season comes to an end, it can be brutal, especially when you feel like you’ve built a close bond with your team. That’s certainly the case with this group,” Quinnipiac head coach Baker Dunleavy said. “We had our moment in the locker room after the game. It’s hard to finish this way, but I couldn’t be more proud of what we built and what we’ve become together.”
