About Chike »

Chike Erokwu - sportswriter extraordinaire at your service.

I have two philosophies on writing and life in general - someone is always right, and someone is always wrong.

Which side am I on?

Read what I write, remember what you read, and more often than not you will find out that answer for yourself.

As a first generation American, I was born in Saint Louis Missouri. My parents, both of Nigerian decent, moved to Cleveland, Ohio shortly after my birth. From there, I have been blessed with 12 years of Catholic schooling, with the last four coming from the prestigious Saint Ignatius High School.

I am currently enrolled in the E.W. Scripps School of Journalism at Ohio University, where I have spent the past four years finishing up a degree in journalism with a concentration in news writing.

Enjoyed the Shaq Piece, good job. Visited OU last year covering UB's football game there and really loved it there. Thinking about applying there for Journalism grad school, just wanted to know your thoughts on the school.
