Got a nice note updating all of us on the activities of Jody Kingsbury, who was a media relations intern with the Lynx last summer.
Jody has been using his winter well, putting together video highlight packages for the varsity teams at McMaster University down in Hamilton.
Speaking as someone whose CIS fetish has been spun off into a second blog, Jody’s highlight packages perfectly capture the atmosphere of a university game in Canada. It’s professional work but it doesn’t look so slick that you forget you’re watching true student-athletes.
No doubt a lot of collegiate and professional sports organizations could stand to have Mr. Kingsbury’s expertise and enthusiasm.

*** UPDATE ***
Carl adds: Glad to see that one of us wasn’t a slacker this weekend. Thanks to friend of the blog (FOTB), RD, for the update on Jody and the link to his work at McMaster - very impressive (just don’t go all MSM on us, JK!). I was going to add that another FOTB has alerted us that FLS (Former Lynx Staff) and blog favorite, Michaela is still working in MiLB. And no, she didn’t go over to the Dark Side. Michaela’s working with the New Hampshire Fisher Cats, the Jays AA affiliate as their new Marketing Manager. Congrats MS!
