Washtenaw Voice students took top honors for news photo and sports story in the college division of the Michigan Press Association’s 2020 “Better Newspaper Contest.” The contest was open to work published in the 2019-20 academic year.
In addition, Voice won second place for investigative reporting, news story, non-front page design, and overall best writer. Voice students got honorable mentions for editorial and review or column writing, as well.

First for sports story went to Kristy King for a feature about female wrestlers at Ypsilanti High School.
