SOU campus

@SOUAshland

Today’s photo is from the archives, a bit over three years ago to be more specific. I haven’t recently looked at this direction sign closely, but I’m guessing the arrow pointing to Cascade Dining is gone as it hasn’t existed for almost two years. Soon the McNeal Pavilion will be coming down as well.

SOU Cheer @ football national championship game tailgate in Daytona, Florida

Southern Oregon University doesn’t have a marching band. However, they had one last December in Daytona when Mike Beagle bribed dozens of Florida high school students with free SOU t-shirts.

Going into Nationals (this weekend), NAIA leaders in each outdoor track and field event can be viewed here. As you can see, Markus Sanders has the third-longest throw in the country in the hammer this season. Last year he came in seventh in this event.

Tim Tsukanov and Scottie Stockman

The outdoor, spring dual may not have all of the intensity of an in-season dual against a real opponent, but from a photographic standpoint, I like it. I can shoot with a fast shutter speed and low ISO unlike the indoor duals. Friday’s wrestling contest was almost moved indoors with the rain, but a sunny afternoon allowed things to go on as planned.
