I am a junior at Point Park University in Pittsburgh. There I am the beat writer for the school's volleyball, women's basketball and softball teams. I also host a radio show on campus called A to Z Sports. I recently spent the summer as an intern for Pittsburgh Sports Report and now write there whenever asked. I already have had press passes with the Pittsburgh Pirates and have been in the press box all season for the Pittsburgh Power. This year will be my first full season as a credentialed media member with the Pittsburgh Panthers Football, Men's Basketball and Women's Basketball. I also have had press credentials for the Bridgestone Invitational, Constellation Senior Players and Mylan Classic. Follow me on Twitter @ZacharyMWeiss
