We are very excited to announce that Andrew Golden will be joining Sports as a full-time reporter.
During a very successful summer internship, Andrew reported across several subject areas. He helped anchor live updates files during the Olympics; covered Nationals, United and Spirit games; and wrote a number of feature stories.
Andrew graduated from Northwestern in June with a double major in journalism and African American studies. Before coming to The Post, he interned at the Chicago Tribune and Kansas City Star and did freelance work for the Baltimore Sun. In Evanston, he worked for The Daily Northwestern, including a stint as the paper’s sports editor.
Please join us in congratulating Andrew.
