Baseball is heading into the All Star Game and the Twins are making a final push for Brian Dozier to make it onto the team. Last night he had a walk-off 2 run homer in the 10th to beat the Orioles 4-2 to help convince the voters.

I don’t think anyone would have thought the Twins would be in 1st place in the AL central and the end of May! 2nd best record in the bigs? No way. Can they keep this up? Its doubtful but its sure fun to watch and photograph and its providing the city with some positive talk about the Twins. Here’s a bunch of pics from this weekends series vs the Toronto Blue Jays.

Its not very often (in Minnesota) that you get to photograph a national championship game, but Sunday I was lucky enough to be assigned the Gopher Women’s Hockey game vs Harvard. The women had an excellent shot of winning their 3rd title in 4 years and on their home ice. Its unbelievable that some of these seniors have won 3 titles during their university career and I’m glad I got to be there to watch them celebrate. My only regret is the NCAA thought it was a good idea to use this purple-ish spot light thing during the trophy presentation….horrendous lighting.

[So I drove to Sioux Falls the other day to cover the Summit League Championship between South Dakota State and North Dakota State. I’ve never shot at the Premier Center so you have to build in some extra time to figure out where the media room is versus where the court is and how you’re going to transmit during the game. Unfortunately it ended up being kinda far away and transmitting during the game was going to be annoying. About 1/2 hour before game time another photog spotted a table courtside with no one on it. I asked if we could set up there..wish granted. It was a scout table and no one was using it.
The game was coming down to a last second shot, South Dakota trailing by 1, with time to dribble down the court to score. All I was thinking was that I really wanted SDSU to lose so the hometown fans didn’t rush the court with my camera gear and laptop courtside, out in the open for someone to take or get damaged. SDSU dribbles down, misses the shot, players fight for the loose ball rebound and time expires. NDSU wins it…potential crisis averted…whew.
Even though NDSU won, there was a little court storming and it was pretty fun. Equipment was spared. Enjoy the Pics!

Gotta show the Wolves dancers a little love on the blog. Talented women with some fabulous hair…it can’t always be about sweaty men pics can it?
Sitting in your assigned baseline spot gives you limited access when taking pics so you tend to get the same girls a lot. Enjoy and Share!
