Place Name: Third Place Contestant Name: Texas Tech MCTV, KTXT Entry Title: MCTV Sports - 11/11/24 Entry Credit: Nathan Boles Judge Comment: Would have liked to see some of the video shot by the station instead of just from the TV, but very well done of telling the story and more than the highlights. Loved the angles you chose to cover in the football recap. Great job covering multiple sports.
Place Name: Honorable Mention Contestant Name: UT-Rio Grande Valley Entry Title: This Week's Sports Update | April 23 Entry Credit: Dathan Treviño Judge Comment: Very well written and witty, all VO/Sots. Good variety of sports in one newscast. I like that you were aware of the surroundings of the game and covered more than the highlights.
Competition Comment: Beautiful highlights for the TCU game, but I did not pick the because the competition note said we needed anchor narration.
Also the other MCTV one was witty, but needed more analysis or stats.
The other UTRGV one needed some SOTs. Was just too fast.
