Sports Photography ( Division B,Division C) Back

Place Name: First Place
Contestant Name: Royal Purple
Entry Title: Softball dominates final homestand
Entry Credit: Charlie Clark
Judge Comment: I wish we (photographers) captured this kind of emotion more often in sports. The scoreboard in the background is great, too, to see that this happened early in a game and must have been a tone-setting play. Outstanding shot!
Place Name: Second Place
Contestant Name: The Clarion
Entry Title: Men's basketball
Entry Credit: Hunter Radke
Judge Comment: Excellent action photo. The looks on the players' faces and the fans in the bleachers are great. Getting a shot of him with the ball cocked back behind his head ... you can feel what's about to happen. Great shot.
Place Name: Third Place
Contestant Name: The Clarion
Entry Title: Men's basketball
Entry Credit: Hunter Radke
Judge Comment: Sometimes a great photo comes from being in the right place at the right time. Then, there are great photos that come from KNOWING where to be at the right time. This is a photo I'd be glad to run in my paper or website anytime. Excellent work!
Place Name: Honorable Mention
Contestant Name: Royal Purple
Entry Title: Peet and Fortugno set the tone for Warhawk wrestling
Entry Credit: Charlie Clark
Judge Comment: Wrestling is a sport that produces more raw emotion than any other. It's 1-on-1, no one else coming to help you if you get in a bad position, or if you need a little extra push to get a pin. These photos show all that is great about the sport!
