I realize that the metrics for college field hockey are low. But there should be something in today's N&O after a local college (UNC) caps a second consecutive undefeated national championship season. There was nothing in the print edition and it was a 1p.m. game.

I'm told that The N&O/H-S is planning to run a story on UNC's NCAA champion field hockey team later this week.

@RL_Bynum It’s because the @newsobserver dislikes UNC. Had UNC lost, it would be the headline of the sports section. All @GoHeels fans need to cancel their subscriptions to this rag.

@Gdtbth @newsobserver @GoHeels No, it's because it's a non-revenue sport.

@NccuHop There are, thankfully, exceptions. The News & Record gives A&T good coverage and the Winston-Salem Journal does the same for Winston-Salem State. The N&O covers NCCU some but not nearly as much as the Herald-Sun used to do. Shaw and St. Aug's are, unfortunatly a different story.

@HeelDaddy21 They are writing a story for later in the week (as I tweeted earlier.) Why would they do that if they were biased?

@RL_Bynum Guarantee you if State has won it, they would’ve covered it. They have an agenda. Period.

@RL_Bynum Well, to be fair, they just dont understand the meaning of “national championship” over in Raleigh. It clearly hasnt been their thing, so tough to write about. 😬

@RL_Bynum It's due to the N&O being a Wolf pack biased paper. So not surprising.

@chapelthrill919 I think that's a case of the beat writer taking the initiative to write the story. I'm quite sure that the editors didn't see a national championship being won and say, "Oh, that's UNC, we wont' cover it." In general, the paper doesn't cover non-revenue sports much.

@RL_Bynum @newsobserver is 🚮. They have an agenda over there, haven’t you heard ? Any positives stories concerning UNC are met with shoulder shrugs and indifference. They are hemorrhaging money, heads will roll...
