Lawrence Journal-World sports editor Tom Keegan, now in his eighth year leading the sports department, has been named the Kansas sportswriter of the year by the National Sportscasters and Sportswriters Association.
The NSSA recognizes one writer and one broadcaster from each state every year and also hands out several national awards annually.
Keegan joins Journal-World sports writer Gary Bedore (2005) as current members of the staff to have won the honor. He will be recognized at the 54th Annual NSSA Awards Weekend, June 8-10 in Salisbury, N.C.

Hmm, 19 comments have been registered, but none are showing.
Is it safe to assume that at least one poster disagrees a bit too vehemently with this award?

I can not stand Keegan's writing. His style is horrible. I read him only if I am really bored.
