about nick stevens

Most of you may know me from my high school sports coverage on WRAL.com.

I do a lot more than work, though.

I am avid sports fan - but my favorites are NCAA Basketball & Football. I am a graduate of Green Hope High School in Cary, and I am currently a student at N.C. State University. I am majoring in Communications-Media with two minors in Coaching Education and Journalism, and I plan on going into sports media of some kind (written, radio, tv, not sure which one(s)).

 I enjoy hanging out with friends, singing karaoke (I'm not very good), going to country concerts, playing games, NCAA Football 08 for XBOX 360 (again, not very good), Guitar Hero, politics, and just having fun.

I do a lot of volunteer work with youth sports as well. Each fall, I volunteer with Cary Pop Warner Football & Cheerleading doing whatever they need me to do. And for the last two springs/summers I have been an assistant coach on a local AAU boy's basketball team - the Cary Cougars.

If you'd like to contact me, please send me an e-mail to stevens@ncsportsreport.com or an instant message to the AIM screen name, PrepSportsNick.

Nick, I wanted to thank you for your coverage of High School Sports. You have really improved WRAL's coverage of prep sports, and WRAL is lucky to have you. Will you be staying with WRAL this coming year?

You have added coverage of prep sports that has never been seen in this area. Best of luck in the future, and thanks again for your coverage!

Jaron

Thanks for the kind words, Jaron. I am planning to stay with WRAL this coming year, so stay tuned!

Great image galleries, Nick. You're quite the photographer. Is this something we can come to expect on Monday mornings? A great addition to our image galleries. Keep it up!

Well... I'll be at the Game of the Week each week. I take a bunch of pictures for my WRAL.com High School Sports blog. The ones that don't make it on the blog will go here I guess.

I'm hardly a photographer, though. I'm just using my personal digital camera to take those pictures!!

Nick I am sorry I somehow over looked your profile when you joined. Blame it on my age. HA I hope you much success in your career and I'm glad you're with us. Get that blog going...

Hi Nick,

Now I understand why there is SO LITTLE coverage on Middle Creek's great conference run this year...you graduated from Green Hope!!! Haha! That explains it :)

On a serious note...keep up the great work you are doing on the WRAL website. Jaron is right, they are lucky to have you on their team.

burns44

Haha. Truthfully, burns44, I would really liked to have been able to cover the upset Middle Creek pulled over Athens Drive - as well as the Seventy-First upset over Richmond - but I was so busy trying to find scores from Monday night that I didn't have a chance.

There were soooo many things going on this past week - from forfeits, to tips that we had to track down only to be found untrue, to ADM numbers, Tom Knotts, and oh yeah - did I mention the normal previews and stuff?

It's been a crazy week, but Middle Creek has done a great job and should be proud. I look forward to seeing MC make a run in the 4-A playoffs now.

Keep up the great work Nick...I'm glad we have someone around the area that puts as much time and effort as you do into high school sports coverage especially football.

Your not doin too well with these predictions lol this is two in a row you predicted leesville to lose and they won them both...almost in shut outs

Yeah, yeah, yeah... I'm picking Leesville to beat New Bern, so we'll see what happens. Leesville and Middle Creek have been the two hardest teams for me to predict this season.
