Anterior Cruciate Ligaments
By Alexis Jenkins
Alexis Jenkins definitely is very active from the start. Sports have always been her passion; growing up, you could always catch her outside at the softball field playing with her high school, tournament team, or family. This all was until she had an almost career-ending injury occur not just once but twice. Luckily, she could continue to play two years of college softball, but she always wondered why tearing your ACL, also known as your Anterior Cruciate Ligament, was such a big deal. Now years later, she is a Senior here at Millersville studying Sports Journalism. After graduation, she plans to work her way into the ESPN world to eventually become an ESPN Broadcast Journalist.

A Look into Sustainable Composites Rejuvenating Leather
By Jordan Satterfield
Jordan Satterfield is a junior at Millersville University. He is a double major in multidisciplinary studies focused on sports journalism and media/broadcasting. This project was given to him as a class assignment for COMM 326 where they had to write a story that focused on sustainability and be local to the community of Lancaster. Satterfield was really passionate about the entire interview process. This was his first project where he had to make arrangements and meet with people whom he had never met before. It was really exciting because it was the first time where Satterfield felt like a real journalist doing a story on a local company. He even had the chance to take pictures of their products and facility. Satterfield wanted to showcase his journalism skills
and show that he is capable of creating a story that can be featured on platforms for people to read.
After graduation, Satterfield plans to find a job related to his major as a sports writer, whether it’s for a sports media website, television network, or a local newspaper. He fully expects to use the skills he used for this particular project like interviewing, journalism, or photography skills.
