Busy day for the SJI interns. After spending this morning in the classroom, they are covering the Phoenix Mercury-LA Sparks this afternoon. There’s a heat advisory in Phoenix today. The interns’ stories better be hot, too! ⁦SJI

Last night the SJI interns covered the Mercury-Stars game. Tonight it’s the D-Backs/Giants. The class attended the pre-game media session with D-Backs manager Torey Lovullo. Almost all are covering their first MLB game. Hope their game stories are a hit. ⁦⁦SJI

And they’re off to their internships! Boot camp is over. A big thanks to the Cronkite School of Journalism, the many speakers, the D-Backs and the Mercury. The 32nd Sports Journalism Institute was a huge success! I expect great things from this class. Good luck! SJI
