NSPA Broadcast Sports story of the year 2010! The story is about a Junior Middleweight boxing up-n-comer from St. Louis, MO. The 2010 National Scholastic Press Association (NSPA) Broadcast Story of the Year contest was co-sponsored by SchoolTube.com and the Radio Television Digital News Foundation. The categories offered were News, Sports and Feature, and the contest yielded a total of 99 entries from students all over the country. This past year was the first year Ladue's Broadcast Technology students submitted work.
Entries were judged based on the following criteria:
* Content/Coverage
* Writing and editing of the script
* Recording and editing of the show
* Interviewing skills
* Technical quality
* Journalistic integrity, courage and ambition
This contest is one of the highest honors bestowed upon broadcast journalism students and broadcast programs. I'm pleased to announce that Ladue HS 2010 graduate, Jake Torchin, won 1st place for the best Broadcast Sports story of the year!
