Riley Tirrell

Hi! My name is Riley Tirrell, and I'm a sophomore at UF from the suburbs of Boston, Massachusetts. I'm studying political science and Spanish, but outside of my major, I've explored courses throughout the College of Journalism and Communications. During the Spring 2025 semester, I covered local high school sports in Intro to ESPN Gainesville and am currently taking Intro to INC sports. I'm looking forward to continue with my passion for sports in my future years at UF and beyond.
