Gavel to gavel: Coverage of high interest court cases
A fairly common judicial/law enforcement case that's covered with clarity. The victim's issues are portrayed with compassion and the suspect's misdeeds aren't glossed over. Good job.

This could be bound in hardback form and sold at bookstores!! What a great historical special section, compiling some awesome information, history and photographs. The writing was crisp, the design good and the flow kept me going through the dozens of pages. Really solid work y'all should be proud of. A keepsake, no doubt. Thank you.

Mill worker points to 'smoking gun' on chemical dump
Outstanding story that grabs the reader in the lead and then develops with the details. There were a lot of solid news stories in the competition, but most told the story from a 10,000-foot view. Those that stood out featured real people that are impacted by the story.

Not your average Veterans Day Edition
A GREAT special section honoring military veterans. There was a wide range of articles/stories on about every topic one could imagine in relation to veterans and their needs/lives/situations. Loved the depth and breadth of content. Design was good, content flowed and in end, stood out above all other entries. Thank you!

This editorial is well written. It shares a positive outlook coming out of a very negative time in our lives. It touches on all of the ways a community can and does come together to support each other. Great work.
