My first front row seat in Believeland

I've been at The Akron Beacon Journal about 5-weeks now and have had a pretty unbelievable first month as a Cleveland sports fan. With the World Series, the start of the Cavs 2016-17 season as NBA champs and the Browns perfect losing streak---I dove right into some sports assignments.

Wanted to share some of my favorite images from my first front row seat to these events.
