Hello world
My name is Jake Ford and I'm a graduate assistant in athletic media relations at Bemidji State University. I'm currently going for my master's degree in English and I earned my bachelor's degree in sport management with a minor in mass communication from the University of Minnesota in May of 2012.
At BSU, I mainly cover the volleyball, softball, and men's and women's hockey teams. I'm in charge of posting news and other information on BSUBeavers.com and on the department's social media pages like Facebook and Twitter. I held a similar position in a slightly smaller role at Minnesota for the men's hockey and men's and women's tennis teams. I enjoy writing about most sports, but my favorite sport as a whole is hockey.
I'm originally from East Longmeadow (don't call it Longmeadow), Mass. and was a captain on my high school's hockey and volleyball teams there. I don't think I have a Boston accent.
