Day 359/365

     More basketball for Wednesday/day 359, this time a regional championship. I went a little crazy on the editing with this one...

Day 358/365

     

     Tuesday night/day 358 was full of some more postseason basketball; the girls state quarterfinals to be exact. It was full of some great playing, and lead to a Saginaw team winning. As an advantage to posting this late: the team, (Nouvel Catholic Central), won the state semifinals today, and will be playing for the state championships this weekend! Hopefully I'll be covering the game, so stay tuned. They're a fantastic team; a lot of fun to watch and even more so to shoot.

Day 354/365

     I got to shoot Arthur Hill vs. Saginaw High for the second time on Friday/day 354 during the boys basketball district finals. Words cannot express how great a matchup these two teams are. It was easily some of the best basketball I've ever seen, (again), and I have a feeling it'll be some of the best I'll ever see. Thanks Hill and High; you're one of the factors that have made this internship so great, and have reaffirmed that I made the right career choice.

Day 352/365

Another night shift. Another postseason basketball game. Another close one!

Day 351/365

     Tonight's game was a regional semifinal, and was one that was only won by two points. Two. Points. Did I mention I love postseason basketball?

Day 350/365

     Monday night I shot a boys basketball doubleheader, made up of two incredibly good games. With the high school basketball postseason being upon us, they just seem to keep getting better and better.

Day 347/365

    Friday/day 347 was spent shooting a basketball tournament out in the middle of nowhere. Nevertheless, it was a great game, (perk of shooting postseason basketball - the game's keep getting better and better). I'm sure there will be even more these coming weeks. 

Day 345/365

     Sorry for the delay in updates; I'll try to stay on top of it more now that the 365 project's in its final home stretch! Wednesday night/day 345 was spent shooting a hockey regional. Bare with me here, the next few weeks will most likely be filled with high school sports action with the winter sports postseason being upon us. Bring it on!

Day 343/365

     Last night/Monday/day 343 I covered both a girls basketball tournament and an ice hockey tournament. The post season is approaching for winter sports, making the games more and more exciting to watch, and therefore photograph, as it approaches. 

Day 271/365

     Saturday/day 271 marked my first time shooting wrestling. I covered two different day-long tournaments, one in Saginaw Township and another in Auburn. It wasn't as bad as I thought it would be, and photo-wise it was actually pretty interesting. It still wouldn't be my favorite sport to shoot, but definitely not my least favorite by far. I got plenty of action shots, but this one ended up being my personal favorite.

Day 101/365

    Today one of my assignments from my internship was covering the final matches of the United States Youth Soccer Association, (USYSA), Region II Championship Tournament. Apparently it's this annual national soccer tournament that's held in a different city each year, and Saginaw won the lottery to host it this year. There were tons of people, parent and players, and I've never seen so many different soccer games going on all at one time in my life. This photo wasn't used for the online article and slideshow, but if you'd like to read the article, (written by a fellow intern of mine), and see my slideshow with captions that all go with it, you can see those here.
