B. Clifton's Bio

We rabid sports fans in Cincinnati bring new meaning to the term "die-hard". I'm proud to be counted within that weather-beaten number.

I'm a recent graduate from the University of Cincinnati where I earned my B.A. in Journalism and minored in English. I'm looking to start my sports-writing career soon.

I hope to someday land a job doing what I love the most: covering my beloved Bengals.
