Meet the Team: Nicole Reitz

by Nicole Reitz

Here at Sox On 35th, we boast a talented and passionate group of contributors that provides coverage all year long. To help you get familiar with our staff, we will be rolling out our “Meet the Team” article series throughout the offseason. In this edition, we get to know Nicole Reitz.


About Me

My name is Nicole Reitz, and I am one of the managing editors for Sox On 35th. I am from Northwest Indiana, (a suburb of Chicago in my eyes), and thanks to my dad I have been a diehard Sox fan since I was born.

Earlier this year, I graduated from IUPUI with a degree in Journalism and a minor in Communications. 

Outside of my full-time job and writing about softball, I love doing farm reports and game recaps for this wonderful site!
