The Warrior continued its long-standing tradition of excellence over the summer. For the first time in 12 years, The Warrior was named an All-American publication by the National Scholastic Press Association, the highest available rating doled out by North America’s premier publication accreditor.

The Warrior received marks of distinction in four of five categories including Coverage and Content, Writing and Editing, Layout and Design, and Leadership. The judge commented that “The Warrior has an amazing variety of well written news articles” and that “photos are very good. Action shots dominate [the pages].”

Warrior alums also fared well in individual writing contests. Former Editor-in-Chief Adam Kopp (’11) won second place for “Best News Story” and former Sports Editor Jessica Golding (’11) won third place for “Best Sports Story” at Towson University’s Maryland Scholastic Journalism Awards. The Warrior will also enter for “Best Overall Newspaper” and “Best Online Newspaper” at Towson University’s journalism day on October 7.
