From VJ to Titantown Sports Anchor/Producer

Melissa Maines, a Westminster College broadcast communications major, will give her capstone presentation "Student by Day, VJ and Anchor by Night" Monday, Nov. 10, at 7 p.m. in the hospitality room of Memorial Field House. The event is free and open to the public.

Maines, Westminster Cable Network's Titantown Sports anchor, said, "I will show examples of how I not only shot my own videos, but put them together and anchored them, as well. If you aren't a football fan, there are packages on Special Olympics; Wilmington High School coach and Westminster alumnus Christian Davoli; and a profile of New Castle Thunder coach Anthony Razzano, who suffered severe burns in an accident."

Maines served an internship in the sports department at WYTV 33, the ABC-TV affiliate in Youngstown, Ohio. D
