Jack is a junior from Orchard Park, NY studying journalism and economics. He started writing for TMS in the fall of 2020, and he became the sports editor last spring. He spent Summer 2022 washing dishes at a high-end Italian restaurant in his hometown, so he is ready to study really hard this semester! He’s a huge Buffalo Bills and New York Yankees fan, and anything less than a championship each this year would be a crushing disappointment for him. When he’s not writing sports, you can probably find him watching sports, defending Drake’s newest album, or playing a ludicrous amount of MLB the Show.

Our sports editor lists his notes and insights gained from Miami football’s spring game on Saturday.
On Friday, The Athletic reported that former Miami University women’s basketball coach DeUnna Hendrix resigned on Wednesday after an investigation revealed “intimate” text messages she exchanged with a player.
“It’s not an easy decision,” Hendrix said. “... obviously I wanted to make it work here, but I also have so much respect for the university and for the Athletic Department, and I just didn’t see the vision come together in the fifth year with so many pieces going back into the portal.”
Even before he was diagnosed with autism at 3 years old, Ryland Zaborowski always had a baseball bat in his hands.
All in all, I think it’s shaping up to be a pretty good 2023-2024 for Miami women’s basketball.
