Ohio Northern University student Rachel Cruea, a junior creative writing major from Findlay, Ohio, has received the 2016 Adroit Prize in Poetry, an international poetry prize for undergraduates and high school students presented by The Adroit Journal.

Cruea’s poem, “The Yellow Marrow Doesn’t Matter,” was selected by judge Corey Van Landingham from thousands of entries from around the world. “This gorgeous, unswerving poem holds great power in its address to an ill sibling,” Van Landingham wrote. “Never florid, never easily sentimental, this poet knows: Illness is not grand.”
