According to Francis Tuttle, they were awarded first place for their demonstration of how attending Thunder Media Day provided experience working in the professional world. The award includes additional funding for the program.

“We know that your video was a team effort with many contributors, and we would like to ask you to forward our appreciation to all who participated,” said H.L. Baird, Statewide Work Based Learning Liaison for ODCTE, in a letter to the winning students.

BVP students participated in Thunder Media Day in September. Officials say they had the opportunity to interact with professional videographers, content creators and Thunder players who were producing promotional content for the NBA season.
