Lets hear it for New York, New York

For a little school in Indiana, Notre Dame was everywhere in New York when the Fighting Irish renewed its long-standing series with the USMA at Yankee Stadium.  NYC was transformed into South Bend with ND band in Times Square to the standing room only crowd of more than 2,400 at the St. Patrick's mass, and the packed bars with all the subway alumni from the area.  This weekend shows what makes Notre Dame a special place, even in NYC.

Web Highlights for the Week

It was good to see several of my photographs used last week on insidelacrosse.com and dcsportsfan.com.

The rivalry that used to be...

Still don't fully understand why they tossed Prep out of the IAC football conference.   This game used to be one of the great DC high school games to circle on the calendar.   Both schools still try to make this game what is used to be when this game decided the IAC conference championship.   Good to see that this game is back on the back on the schedule.

Calvert County Barns

I have been driving up and down Route 4 in Calvert County for years traveling to my parents house in Soloman's Island and always wanted to take some time to photograph these great aging landmarks.   I was surprised by all the recent development and hope these classic barns find a way to survive all this growth in the DC area.

How Many High Schools in DC are Named After a Bishop?

This was my third game this year with McNamara and I thought this was their game for their first win of the season.   They just can’t seem to put it all together and they look like they should be a better team.   Keep trying boys, the first win is right around the corner.   Also, nice job with the pink socks and tape.

Fall Ball Check-In Inside Lacrosse

Great to see some more of my games photos from last season being used to promote the college lacrosee Fall off-season games.  

High School Football Weekend

Just finished a great weekend shooting high school football.   Started Friday night with Damascus vs. Springbrook and I was very impressed with Damascus as they looked like State Champions to me. Saturday started with Bishop Ireton at Bullis and then quickly off to Bishop McNamara at Good Counsel.  Loved shooting the late afternoon game with the warm sunset tone, which is a complete opposite of the Friday night game at Springbrook.  The field lights were so bad I left at halftime.
