There’s nothing like going to the local gas station, the Sunday morning after the state meet and picking up the Sunday papers….yes, real hard copies….then reading the stories written by outstanding Iowa journalists that go much, much deeper than wins & losses. Thank you all!!

Hard to believe I covered my first athletic competitions in 1991. By my count that’s 35 years. I know I’m closer to the end than the beginning. Thankful for the opportunities I’ve had and grateful for the people I’ve met along the way who I now call friends.
