Guidelines on How to Submit a Story

• The team or individual can be from any Lane Tech sport or newsworthy activity.

• Try to be as accurate as possible. Although we understand that in accuracies sometimes happen and a correction will try to be made. If an error is found the correction can always be made at a later time
• Try to give specific names of players, coaches or teams. Try to write full names, but if you don't have a full name then at least try to give a first name.
