About the Contributor
Dez Moore
Dez Moore, Editor-in-Chief
I’m Dez Moore. I am currently a senior and this is my second year on the Eagle’s Eye staff. This year I was chosen to be the Editor-in-Chief. I’m really excited for what awaits our paper this year. This is a really thrilling year for our paper and I have high aspirations for the Eagle’s Eye paper. Now more about myself, I was born to discuss sports. I love writing and talking sports with anyone who provides a decent discussion or argument. I’m a HUGMONGUS Redskins Fan. I spend most of my time at school (the newspaper room) or at the gym training Jiu-Jitsu, Muay Thai, and boxing. When I’m at home I am usually watching ESPN and tweeting. (@DezWeNeedMoore) I think I have told you enough about me. Check out the site and the rest of the editors and great staff we have here at the Eagle’s Eye.
