MultiDisciplinary
Anterior Cruciate Ligaments
By Alexis Jenkins
Alexis Jenkins definitely is very active from the start. Sports have always been her passion; growing up, you could always catch her outside at the softball field playing with her high school, tournament team, or family. This all was until she had an almost career-ending injury occur not just once but twice. Luckily, she could continue to play two years of college softball, but she always wondered why tearing your ACL, also known as your Anterior Cruciate Ligament, was such a big deal. Now years later, she is a Senior here at Millersville studying Sports Journalism. After graduation, she plans to work her way into the ESPN world to eventually become an ESPN Broadcast Journalist.

THe Effect of Video Games on Kids
By Justin Stitz
Justin Stitz is a senior at Millersville University. He has a double major in Sports Journalism and Broadcasting. After graduation, he hopes to pursue his dreams and work in a radio station, news station, or work for a newspaper. Stitz wanted to pursue this topic because he has a strong interest in video games and wanted to see how they can impact himself and share that with the world. He also wanted to be able to share his findings in the hope to maybe get some information out there to others who also play video games. Some of the skills that he gathered from this project were learning new ways to find data and
information and finding the right sources. Finding information for this topic was at times challenging so finding the right information was tough and made it even better when he was able to complete it.
