Siah Hernandez, Sports Editor
Hey!! My name is Jeahsiah Hernandez and I'm a senior at Plainfield South. This is my second year writing for the paper and my first year as the Sports editor. I came into journalism after being recommended by my sophomore English teacher. The idea of taking a different type of class intrigued me so I took it and never looked back.
Writing has always been fun to me, but I was always bogged down by assignments with boring restrictions. The Paw Print gave me an academic environment where I could write freely and pursue whatever interested me. Sports was one of those things and as the Sports editor I try to highlight both the people and the passion that comes with the competitive world of sports. My big goal for this year is to help contribute to a paper that better represents the large variety of students at South.
Outside of the Paw Print I’ve run Track & Field for all four years while also participating in a few different teams for the Cougars. Not one team has failed to amaze me for how dedicated they are to improving upon themselves. All of them have outstanding couches that all care about both the kids and their journey. To me, sports really is pure art and seeing it thrive in this school is truly amazing.
I’m so excited for this upcoming year and cannot wait to leave a mark on this program.
