Who’s the Best Prep Sportswriter Outside of The Mid? (Vote in Poll)

Sondheimer

Robledo

Campa

Who is it?

(Mid Valley Sports staffers are not eligible)

Eric Sondheimer, Los Angeles Times: Yeah, he doesn’t exactly cover the Southeast & Mid-Valley divisions, but its Sondheimer.

Miguel Melendez, Pasadena Star News: Takes all the abuse from the locals but keeps producing a solid product.

Aram Tolegian, San Gabriel Valley Tribune: Generates tons of interest in local football.

Andrew Campa, Pasadena Sun: Move from Whittier Daily to the Sun, was like Lebron going from Cleveland to Miami…Well not exactly, but it was a big move.

Jeff Tully, Burbank Leader: The guy, not enough people know about. Consistent, solid, and still drawing a paycheck from the L.A. Times. Too bad he’s pretty much in a no-man’s land for coverage.

Fred Robledo, San Gabriel Tribune: Where doesn’t this guy pop up? Think how long he has been doing it, and he does all the sports. You may not like his taste in jeans, but he’s a pro.

Steve Ramirez, Whittier Daily News: Stevie R. rolled into prep coverage about the time the Mayflower crossed the Atlantic…He may not be a big personality, but its hard to not like a guy whose nose is always at the grindstone.

Charles Rich, Glendale News Press: This guy is pretty good…and if you’re stuck at a high school baseball game that is dragging in the fifth inning he’s the one you want to be sitting next to. Great stories about his time growing up back east. Like Tully, he’s stuck in the Twilight Zone of coverage.

We miss someone? Tell us who… Also spare us the “He sucks!” argument.

(Mid Valley Sports guys are excluded from this poll because if they win, it would looked rigged. If they lost, it would be too devastating to the ego 🙂 )
