Collin's Bio
My name is Collin Whitchurch and I'm a 21-year old Journalism major at Eastern Illinois University. I cover sports for EIU's daily student newspaper, the Daily Eastern News. I'm an avid follower of almost anything sports. The sport I'm most passionate about is baseball and I follow the Chicago White Sox like some people follow the gospel. I also passionately hate the Chicago Cubs (stemming from having a father who is a St. Louis Cardinals fan). In other sports I am a fan of the Green Bay Packers, Chicago Bulls, and Chicago Blackhawks. Don't ask my why I follow all Chicago teams except football, because I can't really make sense of it. I am a fan of University of Illinois football and University of Illinois and Marquette University basketball.
Sports are my passion. I live them, breathe them, and my knowledge of the sports that I follow I plan to use to succeed in the world beyond college. I enjoy talking and debating sports with anyone who wishes to.
