Liam Hinkle, Sports Writer

Hello everyone! My name is Liam Hinkle (he/him). I am a sophomore and a sports writer for the Evantonian. My passion for journalism has grown exponentially since I first covered my first game for the paper at the beginning of my freshman year.  Aside from the Evanstonian I play Tennis for ETHS, do Model UN, and compete in various math and science competitions. Outside of school, I enjoy hanging out with friends and playing/watching sports.
