About BAST


My name is Scott Semmler and I am a senior at San Jose State University, majoring in journalism with an emphasis in reporting and editing and a focus in radio, television and film.  

Although I do not consider myself a fan, sports has been a passion of mine for some time -- especially that of the Bay Area. I hope to one day be involved in the sports industry in some way, whether it is in the journalism field or elsewhere.

Along with being the primary writer here at BAST, I am also a featured columnist at Bleacher Report, Inc, the 4th largest sports media website in the United States, and I am a part of their TNT Breaking News team.

Besides that, I cover Bay Area sports for Bay Sports Net, contribute to Yahoo.com and you can frequently catch me in the press box covering the San Francisco Giants and Oakland A's for Valley Bay News.

Feel free to reach me with any comments or concerns at Semmler22@yahoo.com.
