Angelina Ruckman, Sports Editor

I am a junior at Bonita Vista High and a third year staff member on the Crusader. I started this year as the Arts and Cultures Editor and am currently one of the Sports Editors: previously a photographer and copy editor. I joined newspaper in hopes of improving my skills in writing and photography and I want to pursue a career in the field of photojournalism. I enjoy being a part of this publication because it allows us to write stories that need to be told. Within the Crusader, we have a voice and can make an impact on our community. It is an honor to have that responsibility.
