I have officially arrived! On Saturday, I received my first official press pass. It felt so cool. The pass let me into the restricted area around the field.
Saturday night was the state championship game for mean’s high school lacrosse. The Chapel Hill Tigers lost 19-13 to the Charlotte Providence Panthers. As little as I know about lacrosse, it was an exciting game. The Panthers pulled ahead early in the first quarter. Chapel Hill fought back in the second quarter to tie the game 10-10 early in the third. Charlotte Providence then scored six unanswered goals and that was it.
I shot well over two hundred photos, submitted fifteen to the paper and had two published with the story, Long live the Queen (City), yesterday. You can see the two photos online here.
North Carolina high school lacrosse underwent a sea of change last weekend, as the last NCHSLA state championships both went to Charlotte schools.
The sports page featured the following two shots. This one led the sports page,pasted across the top of the page.
This one followed below to add some emotion.
I will delve a bit into the challenges of shooting lacrosse in a later post.
