@SOURaiders @SOUTrackXC

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.

Danny Parks

@SOURaiders @SOUTrackXC

Next week about 16 Raiders will be heading to Alabama to compete in the national championship meet. Included in that number will be Danny Parks who won the discus last weekend with the third longest throw in the nation (almost 180 feet). He will also be competing in the hammer throw (pictured above) where he placed third in the conference.

Turdus migratorius

While the models were changing in Lithia Park last week I had a few moments to capture some of the park’s birds.

Some of you may have found your way here through the link on souraiders.com. I have had several people email me asking questions about buying prints or about finding all of my photos for a certain sport.

The photos I post here are a small fraction of the photos I actually have. If you would like to print any of the photos on this blog, you are welcome to do so at no charge. Be sure to click on the photo to get to the higher resolution size which will print with more quality. If you want to use them on the web (Facebook, Pinterest, Twitter, etc.), you are welcome to do so if you link back to traveljapanblog.com/ashland with the photo or link back to the URL with source of the photo.

If you would like me to search through all of my photos and send you photos of the particular athlete you are looking for I charge a reasonable fee for the time it takes me to find all of those photos and to process them for you. I do not normally sell prints. I email you the high quality electronic files in .jpg format, and you can do the printing and framing yourself through a local or online service. My email is on this page or you can comment (leave a reply) to a blog entry to communicate.

Amelia Maguin

@SOURaiders @SOUTrackXC @maguingirl1

Not new to winning awards, Amelia, unsurprisingly, took home another CCC athlete of the week honor today. I think she won this award each time she competed this track season.
