Culver Academy Softball Photos: CGA Varsity Softball vs. South Bend Adams
This evening, the CGA Varsity softball team hosted South Bend Adams in Culver. This is one of those games where I’m not going to report the score because it was not good. From the beginning,the CGA Eagles looked tired and worn out. I’m told that this is their 4th or 5th game in the past 7 days. I’d love to see the girls get some down time but with another game tomorrow, one on Thursday, and one on Saturday, it doesn’t look like that is going to happen this week. I’ve posted some photos here; there more are at http://www.culverphotos.com/p435526442. Hang tough lady Eagles!
Culver Indiana Photographer: Graduation Announcement Shoot
This afternoon, I shot five Culver Academy Seniors for an announcement of their upcoming Graduation. These guys are having a joint graduation party and wanted a group shot to send out a photo card for their invitations. The weather was beautiful and we got some great shots. Unfortunately though, in 90 percent of them, one or more of the boys had their eyes closed. They were good sports but getting them to all smile and keep their eyes open was not an easy task. I’ve shot groups of 20 that I had an easier time of getting the perfect shot. It was fun though, and I’m happy with the final results.
Culver Indiana Senior Pictures: Connor Senior Shoot
This afternoon, I did a quick shoot of CMA Senior Connor Bartleman to come up with some wallet sized photos to send out with graduation announcements.
Culver Academy Baseball Photos: CMA JV Baseball vs. Argos high School
This morning, the CMA Eagles hosted Argos High School in a double header JV Baseball game at Culver. It was a beautiful day, though the bright sun caused some problems for the outfielders. Both teams played well and appeared to be evenly matched. I’ve posted some photos here; there are more at http://www.culverphotos.com/p327818835.
Culver Academy Lacrosse Photos: CMA Varsity Lacrosse vs. Westfield
After several away games, the CMA Eagles Varsity Lacrosse team hosted the lacrosse team of Westfield High School. It was a beautiful day, though a little chilly, and the game was played on the Academy Football field overlooking Lake Maxinkuckee. Culver Academy dominated the entire game with an easy win over Westfield High School. The final score with Culver-15 Westfield-4. If Culver plays this well the rest of the season, they should easily place at the State Tournament in May. I’ve posted some photos here; there are over 200 located at http://www.culverphotos.com/p310123399.
Culver Indiana Photographer: Relay For Life 2010
Ginny and I attended Relay for Life as photographers this year. We are donating all purchased pictures to Relay for Life. Following are scenes from what turned out to be a great evening. The guest of honor was Adam Vinatieri who was a gracious person. He spoke at the event and then walked several laps. He also signed footballs and talked to several of the participants. Several keynote speakers, including survivors spoke at the event. Last I heard, they were getting close to their goal for this year’s event. If you want to purchase pictures, visit Culverphotos.com and look under Community Events.
Culver Academy Baseball Photos: CMA JV Baseball vs. Boone Grove
Tonight, the Culver Academy Eagles played JV Baseball against Boone Grove High School. Due to another game and fading light, I was unable to watch the entire game. What I did see was an exciting game against two evenly matched teams. I’ve posted some photos here; there are many more at http://www.culverphotos.com/p472805251.
Culver Academy Baseball Photos: CMA Varsity Baseball vs. CCHS
This evening, there was a Varsity Baseball game between the CMA Eagles and Culver Community High School teams at the CCHS field. The Eagles started strong and lead for the parts of the game that I was able to watch. They played well as a team, but the Culver Community players hung in there. I’ve posted some photos here, but there are several more of both teams at http://www.culverphotos.com/p540118813.
Culver Academy Baseball Photos: CMA Varsity Baseball vs. Morgan Township
Tonight, the 2010 baseball season began at Culver Academy with the first home game against Morgan Township. The weather was a little deceiving with the temperature being cooler than it appeared, but this didn’t seem to bother either team. The Culver Academy Eagles seemed to struggle in the beginning, but they started coming together as the game progressed. For those unfamilar with Culver, the kids returned from a long Spring Break (over 2 weeks) just 7 days ago. Unlike many of the schools that Culver plays, the Culver baseball team did not continue to practice over the vacation. Knowing this, I think the team played well. I’m not sure what the final score was, as I left once the light started being prohibitive for shooting but when I left, Culver was gaining ground. I’ve posted some photos here; there are more at http://www.culverphotos.com/p1040428675.
Culver Academy Lacrosse Photos: CGA Varsity Lacrosse vs. Homestead
This evening, the CGA Varsity Lacrosse team played their first home game of the 2010 season against Homestead. The CGA girls played well and proved why they’ve won the State Championships in the past. Unfortunately, Homestead was not an equal opponent for Culver. I believe that the score at the half was 12-2 in Culver’s favor. I’ve posted some photos here; there are more at http://www.culverphotos.com/p661969054.
