Maria Comerford

Maria Comerford, News Editor, Senior

This will be senior Maria Comerford’s third year working on The Pel Mel. Comerford first joined the newspaper staff because of her passion for writing. She most loves covering news articles, appreciating their importance and relevance. Aside from being a journalist, Comerford is also a three-sport varsity athlete, playing soccer, basketball and lacrosse.

“My favorite sport is whichever one I’m playing at that moment,” said Comerford.

Not only is she talented with a pencil and a ball, Comerford is also a skilled singer and pianist.

Looking forward to the year ahead, Comerford said, “I hope that our newspaper will continue to cover really interesting topics, with the fewest amount of errors possible.”
