When I started editing my story, I realized the story was missing a lot of key aspects. It’s hard to create a story without an official person. I missed out on a crucial aspect of my story, a player interview. As a sports reporter, it’s my job to get those interviews for my story. Regardless what other reporters are asking in the press conference, I needed to ask them about the Pink Game and how it impacted them. Heading into my next story, I know I need to get the soundbites that make the story.am shifting away from basketball for my next story and covering tennis. The tennis team is off to its best start of a season since 1986 with a record of 7-0. I think this game will help me build more confidence with interviewing athletes as well as help me with steadier shots. I really want to focus on getting different angles of shooting- close, medium, and wide shots.

My first show went well. I went in a little nervous but once I sat down and read for the first time on the teleprompter, my nerves went away. I can’t thank my entire news group for all the support going into filming. I appreciated all the help with getting ready too! I learned with reading my script, I need to practice sounding more conversational. I think I’m too worried about not emphasizing my words correctly. I know for the next show I need to be more relaxed, because I know I can improve.
