Jonah Wright, Sports Writer

Hi everyone! My name is Jonah Wright (He/Him). I am a sophomore and a sports writer for the Evanstonian. This year is my first year doing the Evanstonian and I am very excited to see where it takes me. I have always been interested in journalism and I have loved my time on the Evanstonian so far. Outside of the Evanstonian, I am an actor here at ETHS, I am on the Mock Trial Team, and I play for the ETHS Tennis Team. In my free time, I like to hang out with friends, play or watch sports, and travel.
