Sports Photography Updates
But in my opinion the Chuck White Rules (those unwritten rules that every team knew were out there but were not able to do anything about) still live on. I have played, coached, refereed and photographed basketball most of my life, but when you have one team barely make incidental contact with the opposing team […]
I came from a high school whose basketball program and league that produced numerous college players, NBA players and am very use to having gyms packed to the rafters for games. I can not remember a boys game at my high school that there was not a seat left in the house. So coming to […]
The Eagle River Wolves Varsity boys basketball team hosted the Thunder Mountain Falcons on Friday night in a non conference game. Thunder Mountain is a new high school from Juneau, and came into the Wolves Den to face the winless Wolves. The Falcons were coming off of a win over Grace, and the Wolves were […]
Friday night, January 21st, the Eagle River Lady Wolves hosted the Houston Hawks in a night that was very encouraging at start for the Lady Wolves, but ended with a sour taste. It started for many people with the change in the start time. Originally, the schedule had the C-Team girls facing Houston at 6 […]
The Eagle River Wolves varsity basketball team hosted the Diamond Lynx in their season home opener at the Wolves Den Saturday night. Missing senior starter Nate Yaw because of a knee injury, the new look Wolves looked good, even though Diamond jumped out to a large lead and never looked back. Junior Kelechi Madubuko and […]
High School Basketball is back. Last night I shot the return of High School Hoops in the Eagle River High School gym with a boy’s C-Team and JV match up against Bartlett. Both games resulted in a loss for Eagle River, but both teams played great games. The Wolves C-Team looked great. Better than many […]
The thing as a sports photographer I look forward to all year, and the thing I dread all year is the annual Thanksgiving NCAA basketball pre-season Great Alaska Shootout. Before we get to any photos, let me explain why I dread it each year. I have been photographing the Shootout every year since the 2004 […]
That might be what they call it in other states, or what people might call it who have never seen a game, but here in the state of Alaska it is Flag Football. I have to admit, my view of Flag Football has been less than positive. In the past few years, a few games […]
So there I am. Hanging out on the sidelines during pre-game warm ups, chatting with football managers, injured players, coaches, cheerleaders, prepping myself for a Friday Night football game. In Alaska in August, that means the sun is still up, but low, and here we were looking at some nasty direct light, but light does […]
For the 4th season in a row MaxPreps, a CBS Sports website covering high school sports, contracted me to photograph the national kick off to high school football. Here is a sample of some of the images from the game. You can view more over at MaxPreps.
