Sports journalist Mike Sielski visits Tohickon Middle School

Posted

Sports journalist and author Mike Sielski visited the students of Tohickon Middle School on Jan. 13.
Sielski is the author of three books, including his newest “The Rise: Kobe Bryant and the Pursuit of Immortality,” and “Fading Echoes: A True Story of Rivalry and Brotherhood from the Football Field to the Fields of Honor.” Sielski spoke to the students about his career as a sports columnist for The Philadelphia Inquirer and Inquirer.com and the process of writing and publishing books. He also fielded many student questions about local and national athletes and what it’s like to go to the games with the intent of having a newspaper/website column at the end of it.

In 2015 the Associated Press Sports Editors voted Sielski the top sports columnist in America. He lives in Bucks County with his wife and two sons and Tohickon was the first stop on the tour for his newest book about Kobe Bryant.
