Continued Excellence: Q&A with Linn-Benton Volleyball Coach Jayme Frazier with LB at 23-0

With the their NWAC regular season drawing to a close, The Commuter interviewed Linn-Benton Head Volleyball Coach Jayme Frazier about the incredible season her team is having. The Roadrunners are defending NWAC champions, having finished the 2022 season with a 34-1 record alongside their conference trophy. While their fans are hoping for a repeat, Coach Frazier maintains her focus on the present. After 23 games in 2023, Linn-Benton remains undefeated, having been taken to 5 sets only once. Propelled by returning players from the 2022 title team, such as  Grace Boeder , LB fields a slew of freshman who have stepped in to pick up where departing players left off. Named head coach of the Roadrunners in 1993, Jayme Frazier has been leading LB every year except 2000.

Known by students all across the campus, he has taught multitudes of pupils over his career.  Quirky enough to own lizards, cats and goldfish, he brings his big personality and enthusiasm to educate not just to the classroom, but life itself. In my interview with Chris I got a glimpse of the infectious energy that he brings into his classrooms and optimism that students leave his classrooms with about their writing, their careers, and their ...

Journalism for Spring 2023 in Review

I was able to meet almost all of my goals for this term and progress my abilities in news writing significantly. My greatest accomplishment for the year, and not only the term, was my sports article format. My writing also became more concise as I was able to break large paragraphs into smaller ones as a habit. This allowed me to develop a precision in directing my storytelling that allowed me to explain multiple concepts successively. My improvement of nut graph, leads, and captivating intros was certainly developed along this term, and I strongly feel that much of my writing now competes at a professional level.  Goals from the Beginning of the Term: "I think that my first goal for the term is to create a format for my research summary pieces, because I love to read peer-reviewed journals and present the information from them in a simple format that is easy for persons to understand who have a limited education in the topic at hand." It is interesting to reflect on my first...
