Garrett Smith:Progress Report
The News Peg article that I chose to write about deals with the large local, and national, media attention towards UNI's progress in the NCAA March Madness Tournament. I have questioned how all these players are able to manage their workload with school while dealing with the stress of the game. The news peg will be focused around the way that other students, at Coe and UNI, are able to manage this amount of work and pressure. I plan to interview some student athletes at Coe as well as Jared Kuehner, a former UNI student athlete who transferred to Coe in 2009. I will also focus not only the stress behind this workload but also on the expectations of the workload given in big games like these. Overall, the progress on my news peg article is going great.

Garrett I like the premise behind your article. It connects with mine so it hit home. If Kuehner knows some of the athletes who still play at UNI maybe you could include them as a source. Good work so far, cannot wait to see the final product
ReplyDeleteThis is a great idea for a story. That would be cool if you got some of the other UNI athletes to participate. I'm a huge NCAA mens basketball fan so I'm excited to see how this story turns out! good luck!
