Reader Testimonials
"My reason for purchasing Varsity was purely selfish; to see my daughter’s picture! I have to say the money was very well spent. The quality of the magazine is outstanding from the pictures, to the content of the articles, to the remarkable variety of topics. Not only is Varsity a great showcase of our high school athletes, it keeps us up to date on those that have gone on to college and/or professional careers." – Kathy Cowens, Barre, VT
"I thoroughly enjoy getting Varsity for many reasons. For one, I’m excited to see who’s on the cover. I may possibly know him or her. I also like to read up on all the teams and star athletes during their seasons. I have also come to enjoy the "Back Page." Varsity should be in the household of every child playing a sport in Vermont, our twin state, and beyond..."– Todd Shepardson, Champlain Valley Union High School, VT
“I think that Varsity Magazine is great. It gives athletes something to look forward to, and recognizes a lot of great accomplishments. You’re doing it right, and although I graduated, I look forward to seeing what’s happening in NH and VT next year.” – Jon Desmarais, Manchester Central Basketball, NH
“I just wanted to say congratulations and great success. You found a niche that was not being covered. Our athletic director gave us our first copy because our daughter was in it. Her name is McKinley Curro and she plays lacrosse and field hockey at Souhegan along with her sister JoJo. It was so fun to see your list of athletes and having them get some credit for a lot of hard work. I am glad we found you-hope others do!” – Laurie Curro, Amherst, NH
"I feel the magazine is great because it's giving exposure to high school sports in New Hampshire and Vermont. To be able to see what other athletes are doing and showcasing their accomplishments is a great thing. I look forward to reading Varsity and seeing who’s doing well in their respective sports." – Matt Lemieux, Manchester Central High School, NH
“I enjoy Varsity Magazine because I like to read about the accomplishments of the area athletes. The pictures are always great action shots. This magazine is a great way to give these athletes some recognition for the hard work they put into their sports. For the kids who are trying to play in college this will be a great marketing tool. And as in the case of the BFA Comets Hockey team, your pre-season picks can be a great motivator.” — Heidi Manahan, St. Albans, VT
“I like Varsity because it highlights high school athletes—us. The articles and pictures are proof that high school students are not only academic, but can be very accomplished athletes as well. Living in a small state, it is a great way to showcase what Vermont has to offer. It also gives an opportunity to athletes around New England to get to know one another.” – Kaitie Knight, South Burlington High School, VT
“Great job so far; the kids brawl over who’s going to get the mag when it first arrives. Keep up the great work.” – Bill O’Rourke, Rutland, VT
“Today, athletes have very high standards to live up to; they are expected to dedicate much of their time to sports, do well academically, and find time to be a “kid.” Varsity recognizes those athletes. Varsity is working to improve high school sports by recognizing those that have exceeded the standards.” – Sarah Madey, North Country High School, VT
“I love Varsity. The writing is fresh and entertaining and it provides a depth of information that New England high school sports have never seen. Before Varsity, high school sports rarely saw much press outside of the occasional game recap in the newspapers. Now, I can read up on local basketball teams and find a breakdown worthy of a Sports Illustrated Final Four preview. Furthermore, Varsity’s coverage has added an entirely new element to high school sports—kids are already debating over who’s going make “Team 1!” – Kyle Rosenblad, Champlain Valley Union High School, VT |
