What Now?

Well, fellow followers, now that the NLL season is over I am at a stand-still as to where I am going to go with this blog. I do not want to just stop posting just because the season is over and the trophy has been awarded (go hawks)!

As the semester is coming to an end, I have posted my final article for my Writing for News Publication class which this blog was originally created for. Being in this class and being given the amount of work that we were given was a real wake-up call but I have learned something through doing all of this work. I have come to the realization that what I want to do with my career and future is communications and beat writing within the lacrosse community. That's a far cry from my original dream of being a news anchor on TV. 

I have been an NLL fan since I was 6 years old and have had season tickets to the Knighthawks for over ten years! I think I have found the perfect mix of my two passions which are writing and lacrosse.

Writing these articles has pushed me to get in contact with players and people within the Rochester Knighthawks organization which is something that I would have never thought of doing if it were not for these assignments. I now have some connections (even if they are not strong connections). 

 I want to take this opportunity to thank all of the people who have taken the time to get back to me when I asked them questions for my assignments because they did not have to do it but, out of the kindness of their hearts, they did. They were extremely kind to me too!

I look forward to my future and am excited to see where all of this leads me. My plans, you ask? Well, I am planning on applying for an internship within the communications department at the Rochester Knighthawks office. That will bring me one step closer to my new-found dream. 

As far as this blog goes, I think I am going to start writing over the summer for both the outdoor and indoor leagues in the US and Canada. Summer leagues are new territory for me but I have found something that I truly enjoy doing and would love to make a career out of.



So, just because the NLL is over for the season and school is ending for the summer, if you have any interest in Lacrosse and my writing, please check back here every once in a while because it really means a lot to see that I have viewers on my blog!

Here's to a new chapter of this blog! Summer box lacrosse and the MLL have just begun! I'm excited to continue this journey in the world of journalism, social media and blogging!
