Senior reporter Lizzie Olsen was awarded second place for her feature story, “From favorite childhood star to powerful political influence.” Junior reporter Addy Mosco was awarded second place for her opinion column, “Protect our people.” Junior Associate Business Manager Ella Mosco was awarded second place for her feature story, “A look inside the mind of a serial killer.” Sophomore Associate Editor Gabi Isenberg was awarded second place for her feature story, “She’s got a big reputation.”
