Chronicle’s Ann Killion, Susan Slusser chosen state’s co-sportswriters of the year
Chronicle columnist Ann Killion and A’s beat writer Susan Slusser have been selected the co-California Sportswriters of the Year by the National Sports Media Association.
The group announced the list of the winners — a sportswriter and broadcaster in each of the 50 states — Monday morning.
The NSMA has been honoring journalists since 1959, but this is the first time two women have shared the award.
“It’s so gratifying for our sports department to once again take home this award,” Chronicle Editor in Chief Audrey Cooper said.
