Jack Taylor is a third-year communications major from Loveland, Colorado, minoring in legal studies. Taylor will be serving as the sports director and reporter for The Rocky Mountain Collegian during the 2020-21 school year.

Taylor first toured Colorado State University in 2018 while in his senior year of high school. Taylor spent most of his time in high school participating in athletics and building relationships with his friends. University was an afterthought for him as he entered senior year of high school; however, after touring CSU’s beautiful campus, it was clear to him that staying in Colorado and pursuing an undergraduate education was his next step. 

“Taylor looks forward to leading the sports desk to another successful year regardless of the unfortunate effects that Covid-19 has had on the CSU athletics community.”

After completing his freshman year of college and experiencing all that comes with living in the dorms, Taylor wanted to become more involved in CSU’s student community. Taylor joined The Rocky Mountain Collegian as an assistant editor for the sports desk in early 2019, where he could express his passion for athletics and gain valuable communicating skills. Taylor first began editing articles for the desk and later began covering CSU football and men’s basketball. 

Taylor’s love for sports comes from his youth, when he participated in almost every athletic sport he could, from peewee football to water polo. Taylor enjoys the competitive nature and team-building life skills of athletics. Taylor also has enjoyed writing since his early education, as he frequently stated English as his favorite subject in school. 

Taylor looks forward to leading the sports desk to another successful year regardless of the unfortunate effects that COVID-19 has had on the CSU athletics community.
