Kyle Magda is a sportswriter for the Times News. He graduated from Penn State University in 2015 with a bachelor’s degree in journalism.

Magda interned at the Times Leader in Wilkes-Barre, in the sports department during the spring of 2014 and remained there in some capacity as a motorsports stringer for all Pocono Raceway events until 2018. He also wrote for the Daily Collegian, the Penn State student newspaper, covering women’s soccer, men’s gymnastics and women’s hockey in his time there. He also covered NASCAR driver Jeff Gordon’s announcement at the university in spring 2015.

When he’s not covering an event for the Times News, you can find him somewhere at a sporting event, but most likely at a racetrack where he’s followed the racing scene since 2001.
