About Mike »

The name is Mike Gurnis, i'm 18, and a Sophomore at St. John's University in Queens, NY. I originally hail from Vernon, NJ, which is where I still reside today. I'm a die-hard New York Jets and Yankees fan, i'm a New Jersey Devils fan, and I'm a Knick fan (when they're good....). My life is Sports, which is why i'm a Journalism major at St. John's, and hopefully that will parlay into a Sports Journalism career in the future.
