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.

The next step

The Quinnipiac men’s basketball season came to an early end on Thursday when Niagara knocked the Bobcats out in the first round of the MAAC Tournament.

After a thrilling last-second victory over Fairfield on Feb. 6 to improve to 7-6 in the MAAC, the Bobcats finished the season with a 7-13 record in the MAAC, 10-21 overall and on a seven-game losing streak.

As a result of the poor season, Quinnipiac has relieved head coach Tom Moore of his duties, and are expected to begin a coaching search immediately. In 10 seasons at the helm, Moore failed to win any conference championships and his teams struggled to a 19-42 record over the past two seasons.
