Sydney Rockett

I am a multimedia sports journalist. Sports is my passion, and I enjoy talking, writing and reading about all things sports. I am a recent graduate from the University of Southern California and obtained my master's of journalism. 


My diverse background in sports is what makes me marketable to employers. As a woman who previously played Division I soccer and aspires to work in the professional sports media industry, whether I am on-air talent, working behind the scenes in production sideline reporting, or covering a game, I am an asset for any organization that is looking for a woman to cover sports.
