Place Name: First Place Contestant Name: California State University Bakersfield Entry Title: The Runner - Full Court Press Entry Credit: Damian Lopez, Ellen Kommel Judge Comment: Very clever headline, and love the angle on the photo -- way to elevate what could have been a boring "standing in line" shot. And great representation of the rest of the paper in the teasers. Nicely done!
Place Name: Second Place Contestant Name: Humboldt State -- Lumberjack Entry Title: See What They Saw: Humboldt Timber Sports Team Returns to Action Entry Credit: Elliott Portillo, Morgan Hancock Judge Comment: Fantastic photo; love the cutout over the flag. Lots of action in the teaser photos, too, which makes readers curious to know more about the stories inside. Good work!
Place Name: Third Place Contestant Name: Pepperdine University Entry Title: The Graphic Entry Credit: Ali Levens Judge Comment: Stunning! The block letters draw the eye, but the mural of photos in the background keeps you looking. The in-depth look at what's inside the rest of the paper is nice, too.
