Excited to announce that tomorrow is my first official day as the sports editor of the Daily Sun.
The Daily Sun gave me my first chance to be a sports reporter out of college, and it’s surreal to be coming back.
Malachi Wideman is on to the finals after three 60/60 dunks - the only player to throw down more than one perfectly scored dunk
