With the revamping of the Statesman in honor of our 50-year anniversary, Statesman Sports is making its own improvements to ensure better campus sports coverage, and encourage more Stony Brook fans to get out there and cheer on our teams.

As always, we have been looking for new writers for their fresh ideas and to increase our coverage of Stony Brook Sports. Our staff has doubled from last year’s, and we’ve been able to provide regular coverage of the major sports on campus. As always, this can still be improved.

We’ve added new Sports podcasts, both a summary of the issue, titled ‘The Statesman SportsMinute,’ and a regular podcast where we discuss college and pro sports, debating the issues that make the headlines and spark the best debate.

We’ll also be launching a regularly updated sports blog, that will be featured occasionally in the print issue. We are working to expand our photography staff, to provide better game-to-game coverage, capture the game, and bring it to you.

As always, we are looking to make more improvements and expand our coverage, so we want to hear what you have to say. E-mail [email protected] for any comments, criticisms or praises’ — we would love to hear from you either way.
