We are constantly running short on sports articles. Sports pictures fill space up nicely, maybe have an article on the fans also. You could maybe write on other things that interest your readers such as ultimate frisbee, etc.
Feature articles are always great.
I, too, come from a campus that has little in the way of sports in the summer. Features are the way to go. I just did a small feature on a deaf football player. I am one of the finalist for ACP sports story of the year for a long piece i did where i followed a team for a day and wrote on that. You can do pieces on fans, a stadium, the trainers, equipment people, anything.
