The Minnesota Star Tribune earned 11 Top 10 honors for work published in 2024 from Associated Press Sports Editors in the top national sports journalism contest.
Four of those top 10s came in the categories needed to win the top honor, a Grand Slam award: print portfolio, digital portfolio, event coverage and projects.

Photos by Carlos Gonzalez and Alex Kormann were among the top 10 in the feature photography category in Division A, and the print special section about the Minnesotans competing in the 2024 Paris Olympics was named top 10 in a combined A/B Division.
Entries were judged over the past month by more than 100 sports journalists from around the country. Results were announced last week during the APSE’s annual winter meeting in Lake Buena Vista, Fla. The Star Tribune also won Grand Slam honors in 2016 and ′22.
