Career Q & A Interview: Part 2 of 5-The Sports Editor Life 

Comm Creatives:

How is it different than what you expected it to be like?

Nigel Chiwaya:


“As far as a difference, we’re a weekly paper, so people don’t come to us for major sports news, so I’ve had to get better at writing timeless, feature pieces.”

Comm Creatives:

What are the career highlights so far being a new sports editor?

Nigel Chiwaya:


“I’ve been to some amazing places. I was at opening day at CitiField, the Mets new ballpark. I covered the Big East tournament, I kinda went nuts doing extensive coverage of the local high school basketball playoffs in March. It’s been fun, exhausting, but fun.”
