Welcome to the blog dedicated to University(LA) High School Sports.
A brief explanation on why this blog was started; I was the sports editor of the "Wildcat" newspaper, but due to scheduling circumstances for the next quarter I am no longer able to continue working on the newspaper staff which means sports will lose the usual coverage they were able to enjoy. Instead of having no coverage, this blog will be independent of the paper and will show recognition to the Uni athletes.
As a journalist, I have to be able to provide full details of the story to the readers, so I will be pulling no punches, as usual, when it comes to the stories I post (so to the teams that have been upset with my coverage while writing for the newspaper, I only give honest opinions as an outside spectator with a journalistic set of rules and personal expectations for each team). I understand that the athletes are students first and not professionals and that they work hard to put strong efforts on and off the field/court.
I will do my best to keep up with all teams that are either currently playing, or will start their seasons in the coming months. With exception to Patrick Duenas, who will provide all photos on this blog, it is a one man staff, so I will not always be able to keep updated on the sports that are not as high profile as others.
I hope that if you are an athlete on a sports team in the Winter/Spring athletic seasons that you enjoy the recognition that you will receive and are able to read the stories, either after wins or losses, with an open mind and do not take it personally. If you attend Uni, or are an alum, then hopefully you'll enjoy reading up on Uni Sports.
