Two Murray State students entered and placed in the 2020-2021 Hearst Journalism Awards Program.
The program is a collection of 14 competitions for journalism undergraduate students. There are five writing, two photojournalism, one audio, two television and four multimedia competitions each year, having to consist of already broadcast materials.
Piper Cassetto, senior television production major, won fifth place and a $1,000 scholarship in the Hearst Media TV Features competition. She entered “Pony Up,” a two-part video series that follows the Murray State Racer Girls on their journey to the Fall 2020 OVC Tournament.
