Jen Dobias
Jen Dobias hopes to be a sports journalist after graduation and dreams of working for Sports Illustrated or The Hockey News. She has interned at the Courier-Post in the sports department for two summers and even had one of her articles picked up by USA Today. While she is a hockey writer at heart (and a former player), she enjoys covering all sports and especially the athletes who compete in them. It is as Terry McDonell wrote in his article "In My Tribe": "It's not about scores and stats, it's about the stories. The players' skill and athleticism can be mind-blowing, but without the backstories there is no connection. The excitement comes from knowing enough about the athletes to care who makes the shot and who misses...There are no home teams for us. We root for the story."Leave a Reply
