2012 ACC Baseball Tournament
A few images from the 2012 ACC Baseball Tournament played this weekend in Greensboro, North Carolina. It was the first time a number eight seed had ever won the tournament (Georgia Tech over Miami in the final), and an attendance record was set on Saturday night. The most people (10,200) to ever attend a college baseball game in the state of North Carolina watched the University ofNorth Carolina play in-state rival North Carolina State.

Have been spending some time this week covering the ACC Baseball Tournament. Have a lot of respect for catchers,.. a dirty job. I know, I used to be one.

Cricket in the Country
I spent part of the day Sunday shooting a sport I have heard about all of my life but have never had the opportunity to see played in person. I wasn’t on a trip to Great Britain or one of the former Commonwealth countries where the sport is so popular that it ranks number two in the world behind soccer with the most fans. Rather, I saw cricket played for the first time in rural North Carolina, just 5 miles from my home. An English businessman with a love for the game has built an extremely fine cricket facility in Climax, North Carolina, and each weekend  from April to October, local teams from the Carolina Cricket League play games there. Like I said, I don’t know a lot about cricket, but I do recognize athletic ability, and the guys playing this game are very serious about what they do. Very serious and just as friendly, as many of the players took time to answer my questions and help me understand the rules. I plan to stop by again and learn more.

2010 Tour de Lions
This past weekend was truly a two-wheeled one. On Saturday I covered the Grays Chapel Lions annual Tour de Lions bicycle ride. It was a beautiful day and over 400 riders took part to raise money for the visually impaired.

Women’s Basketball
And now for something completely different. I enjoy shooting sports, but I don’t get as many opportunities as I once did. These photographs are from last weekend’s Women’s ACC tournament in Greensboro, North Carolina.
