Teel among Times-Dispatch sportswriters to win top prize in national contest

Three Richmond Times-Dispatch reporters were honored Wednesday with a first-place award in the Associated Press Sports Editors annual contest for sports journalism.

The award was given to David Teel, Mike Barber and Eric Kolenich for their coverage of last year’s shooting at UVa that killed three football players.

A panel of six judges, representing sports editors from across the country, voted The Times-Dispatch’s coverage to be the top “event coverage” of the year among mid-sized papers. The St. Louis Post-Dispatch was second, the Kansas City Star third.
