Winners will receive up to a $1,000 scholarship and be placed in a paid internship for the summer of 2014. The organization's 2013 interns worked at ESPN, Sports Illustrated, MLB.com, The Denver Post and The Colorado Springs Gazette.

For the fourth consecutive year, an AWSM intern will attend the intensive SJI training before beginning her sports writing internship.

Finalists will be chosen by a panel of AWSM board members, and winners will be selected by the organization's prestigious group of employers.
