Colin Houston, Sports Editor

My name is Colin Houston and I’m the sports section editor at the Trinitonian! I’m a senior political science major and have lived in San Antonio my whole life. Outside of the Trinitonian, I am the publications chair of Trinity’s Young Democratic Socialists of America chapter and an admiral (former captain) of Swashbucklers. I’ve also done work for the San Antonio Current, and I’ve been involved as both a member and an officer of TU Progressives and Eco Allies. Some fun facts about me include: I play guitar, my favorite band is Bad Religion, I compose VGM occasionally, I’ve published a short story in the Trinity Review, and I absolutely love Oxford commas with all my heart.
