Sports and athletics have also been a passion of mine and a big part of who I am as a person, so when I had the opportunity to be a part of sports in journalism, I knew that I could not refuse. I loved the adrenaline I get to feel when interviewing one of our team's get a big win, or the feeling of excitement when I got to share with our entire school the accomplishments of others.
This is my senior year reporter highlight reel where I am both reporting details and stats from the games and interviewing coaches about what happened. While I am reporting, I make an effort to keep good eye contact, a clear speaking tone, and a good on-camera persona. I also love to add a b-roll when I edit these interviews as it allows the viewer to follow what is being talked about.

This is my junior year sports reporter highlight reel, and this video made me a state finalist for Best Sports Reporter at the Mississippi Scholastic Press Association 2024 competition. In this video, I am on camera reporting the events and news that happen across the South Panola School District in sports. I was excited to get to use this opportunity to lead by example by showing the younger members of our team how our weekly news should be delivered. I have learned so much from this experience too.

These are also sports stories that I did for our Lady Tigers Varsity Basketball team. Coach Pope is one of my favorite people to interview as I love to hear and see her passion for the game and her team.
2024 Lady Tigers Basketball Season Story
This was a sports vlog I made when I was competing in Tupelo, MS for a swim meet. I wanted to be able to show what all happens at one of these competitions for people who do not know how they work and how much fun they are.
