I& #39;m happy to announce that for the past month, I& #39;ve been working as a sports reporter at the North Platte Telegraph!
There& #39;s been a lot I& #39;ve been doing since I& #39;ve gotten to North Platte, Nebraska. And I wanted to share some of the stories I& #39;ve worked on since then:
There& #39;s been a lot I& #39;ve been doing since I& #39;ve gotten to North Platte, Nebraska. And I wanted to share some of the stories I& #39;ve worked on since then:
Like this one from the Hershey High School tennis team, who had seniors push for new uniforms this season, only to not get the chance to wear them. https://www.nptelegraph.com/sports/lost-season-hershey-seniors-trissa-wilson-keyana-hastings-pushed-for-new-tennis-uniforms-now-they/article_5f766386-86b9-11ea-9feb-8306eceb18d7.html">https://www.nptelegraph.com/sports/lo...
Then there& #39;s the Wallace track team. A relatively young team with a talented freshman class and two senior leaders on the team. https://www.nptelegraph.com/sports/lost-season-wallace-seniors-miss-out-on-chance-to-lead/article_bde5a488-86b7-11ea-a731-07d0cfec4717.html">https://www.nptelegraph.com/sports/lo...
The Hershey track team& #39;s seniors won& #39;t get that satisfying last push due to the loss of their season. https://www.nptelegraph.com/sports/lost-season-hershey-track-and-field-seniors-won-t-get-satisfying-last-push/article_4ed4f368-86b8-11ea-836b-6fffba06370a.html">https://www.nptelegraph.com/sports/lo...
A young Wallace golf team with many first-year players face setback due to lack of season. https://www.nptelegraph.com/sports/young-wallace-golf-team-faces-setback-with-lack-of-season/article_ba42a028-86b8-11ea-9170-cb7c9e6f6ab4.html">https://www.nptelegraph.com/sports/yo...
An experienced Hershey golf team had many options for the five varsity spots, including a handful of seniors. Now they won& #39;t get that chance. https://www.nptelegraph.com/sports/lost-season-hershey-golfer-josh-eshleman-didn-t-think-a-lost-match-to-a-teammate/article_11943666-86b9-11ea-a57d-4f50c1bccafe.html">https://www.nptelegraph.com/sports/lo...
I& #39;ve also written about new coaches at Maxwell High School. The first is Quin Conner for the boys& #39; basketball team, a former assistant coach at Conestoga High School. https://www.nptelegraph.com/sports/maxwell-hires-conestoga-assistant-as-boys-basketball-coach/article_bed0288c-7f91-11ea-af14-17b2c29b2dc6.html">https://www.nptelegraph.com/sports/ma...
On the girls& #39; basketball side, Maxwell also hired Lane Swedberg, a former middle school coach, to run its program. https://www.nptelegraph.com/sports/maxwell-hires-wallace-native-lane-swedberg-to-take-over-girls-basketball-program/article_c13dab36-8512-11ea-968b-3f24a25f55ed.html">https://www.nptelegraph.com/sports/ma...
Staying on Maxwell and returning to the "Lost Season" articles, this is one for the Maxwell track team as well. https://www.nptelegraph.com/sports/lost-season-offseason-work-won-t-pay-dividends-for-maxwell-seniors/article_3f261310-812d-11ea-8bae-cb11b5201453.html">https://www.nptelegraph.com/sports/lo...
And we have Brady High School& #39;s track team as well, featuring TJ Roe& #39;s story of trying to get more State appearances than his older brother did. https://www.nptelegraph.com/sports/lost-season-brady-trackster-tj-roe-wanted-to-beat-his-brother-by-appearing-4-times/article_20564828-812e-11ea-8d96-fbd3de99944c.html">https://www.nptelegraph.com/sports/lo...
Finally, my first two stories published. The first was on the North Platte St. Patrick& #39;s High School track team and a few of their senior athletes who won& #39;t get another shot at states this year. https://www.nptelegraph.com/sports/no-last-shot-at-a-state-run-hard-offseason-work-won-t-pay-off-for/article_cea90174-7ba5-11ea-a895-ff5c42ccfb19.html">https://www.nptelegraph.com/sports/no...
And last but not least, the story of the St. Pat& #39;s golf team, including an athlete who was going for his 12th varsity letter, but won& #39;t get it once the season was canceled. https://www.nptelegraph.com/sports/without-a-shot-at-redemption-after-being-runner-up-st-pat-s-golf-had-eye/article_28200626-7ba6-11ea-a1a6-977cfb6f8498.html">https://www.nptelegraph.com/sports/wi...
