Nice work covering multiple facets of this relocation. The writer made this topic interesting to readers, regardless of if they like baseball or were fans of the team.

Ah, the excitement of youth! Perfect timing on the photo, shows why they play the game.

It's rare to see a story followed over several weeks and editions in newspapers these days. Christopher Long put in the work, the time, and hopefully his readers could appreciate this diligence. Good package of articles. Congrats on 3rd place in a tough competition. Keep up the good work.

This paper is covering the bases. Needs more enterprise about community issues, though.

Excellent story about what happened both before and after the murders. I was glued to the trial story. Excellent work

Outstanding account of a survivor who captured hearts but what really stood out was not one man's survival but real emotions of those around him, including the good, the bad, the ugly. Could not have been easy to get people to talk so honestly and then to capture their emotions so brilliantly. Superb.

Who doesn't love this photo!? So adorable!! Framer for that family for sure.

This newspaper proves that persistence pays. I love that 'keep digging' attitude. Local residents should be very proud of their hometown newspaper

Action photos paired with excellent cutlines. Reader feels shown a story and not told a story. Places the reader/subscriber in the moment. Story is placed on the page well and the extensive story is broken into segments making the article approachable.
