Place Name: First Place Contestant Name: The Sheboygan Press Entry Title: Alex Palou enveloped in confetti Entry Credit: Gary Klein Judge Comment: Some of the most confetti I've seen!

Place Name: Second Place Contestant Name: The Post-Crescent Entry Title: Kimberly soccer player personifies agony of defeat Entry Credit: Dan Powers Judge Comment: Good job shooting outside of the usual winning celebration. Can feel the emotion here but the distance of the photographer and the empty space left in the photo somewhat decreases your connection to the subject. Know it can be uncomfortable to identify someone at a low moment, but a name with this photo is important.
Place Name: Third Place Contestant Name: The Post-Crescent Entry Title: A sneaky, sleepy celebration at the Timber Rattlers game Entry Credit: Bill Glasheen Judge Comment: Good framing with a player from each team. Would've been nice to get a reaction from the Quad Cities player, but good photo nonetheless.
