Judge Comment: Man, UTA. You really put out quite a newspaper. It's tight, shows commitment with a dizzying area of stories and focuses on the basics. No frills means it's about old-school journalism.

Judge Comment: Hubba hubba. Fantastic layout with a bold header (albeit font could be smaller), right balance in carousel of news, features and opinion and consistency. Could be fussy but someone(s) with a good eye salvaged it. Great rid of text below the headlines and and moves some of those shimmering stories to the top
- Competition Comment: What a stellar group of contestants. Overall each of the winners could easily be number one, but UT stands out again for the distinct branding. There's a reason nonetheless these schools pump out fine talent, and it's evident in the newspapers.
