  • Competition Comment: While there were some good topics addressed in the submissions — with athlete mental health being highlighted — the few submissions and the limited scope of the reporting showed a general lack of appreciation for the value of this type of reporting. That is something hopefully instructors will do better at instilling in student journalists.
