The Advocate | Times-Picayune was honored with a national Top 10 for print portfolio in 2024.
The sports staff of The Advocate and Times-Picayune landed another Associated Press Sports Editors nationwide Top 10 award for its work in 2024.
The paper was given a top 10 for “print portfolio,” a category that combines daily and Sunday sections, in the largest division.
A national panel of sports editors and writers judged the contest; results were announced last week.
This is the sixth consecutive year Louisiana’s largest newspaper was honored as one of the 10 best sections in the APSE’s “A Division,” the tier of largest organizations that includes papers such as the Washington Post, New York Times, Los Angeles Times, Dallas Morning News and Newsday.
Before 2019, The Advocate and New Orleans Advocate had previously competed in the APSE’s B Division.
In addition, staff photographer Scott Threlkeld was honored with a Top 10 in the feature photo category. Threlkeld’s winning entry was a photo of LSU gymnast Kiya Johnson celebrating her floor routine with assistant coach Courtney McCool at the SEC championship meet in New Orleans last March.

Since 2013, The Advocate has earned 53 overall Top 10 awards and 10 honorable mentions in the annual contest.
