FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE:
MANKATO, MINN.–Senior Golf Writer for USA Today, Steve DiMeglio, is returning to the place where it all began. He will be attending Minnesota State University, Mankato’s Media Day, where he will give a speech titled “Mickey Mantle’s on Line 1, Steve!” It will takes place from 4 p.m. to 6 p.m. in Ostrander Auditorium.
The presentation will address DiMeglio’s journey from editor at the MSU Reporter to the White House to the house that Ruth built to his current role as a golf reporter for one of the most respected newspapers in the world.
“He was absolutely the most dedicated sports editor our paper has ever had,” said Ellen Mrja, a professor in the Mass Media department. “His sports pages were more than scores. They were interesting, informative and consistently outstanding.”
The event is being financed by the Nadine B. Andreas Foundation. There will be no charge for attending.
