CGA Polo vs. Atlanta
This past Friday night, I ventured out in the snow and cold to watch the CGA Polo Team as they hosted a polo team from Atlanta. The CGA girls played hard, but they were a little outmatched by the team from Atlanta. Though CGA lost, the game was still fun to watch as there was lot of action and excitement.
I’ve posted some of my favorite photos here. Additional photos are uploaded at the CulverPhotos website at:

CMA Polo vs. Midland Polo Club
A few weeks ago, Ginny and I photographed the CMA polo match against National Champs Midland. The Midland team is a college team, but the CMA team held their own. Following are some photos from the weekend matches. To view additional photos, please visit our website at http://www.culverphotos.com/cmapolo
Culver Academy Polo Photos: CMA Polo Scrimmage
This afternoon’s polo game was canceled due to an injury last night to one of the visiting team’s players who broke his leg in two places. Becuase of this, he and another player headed home to Ohio. Instead of canecling everything, Culver Academy decided to help field the the opposing team and have a scrimmage to allow the players a chance to get some practice. All and all, it was exciting to watch, though you didn’t know which side to cheer for. Please note that there were some Academy players in the opposing team’s uniforms. I’ve posted a few photos here; there are more in the sports section under Culver Acaemy on www.culverphotos.com.
Culver Academy Polo Photos: CGA Varsity Polo vs. University of Michigan
Another exciting polo game on Culver Academy’s campus. This morning, the CGA Varsity Polo team played a second game against the women’s polo team from the University of Michigan. It is a fun game to watch though unlike last night’s game, the CGA Eagles didn’t do as well. The University of Michigan team started strong and took an early lead that the Eagles never came back from. I think the Eagles took a few minutes to get into their groove, whereas the Michigan team started with theirs. The final score was Culver-9 and University of Michigan- 12.

Culver Academy Polo Photos: CGA Polo vs. University of Michigan
Polo is back! For those who don’t know me, I was in Troop A when I attended Culver Academy. 20+ years later, I’m still a trooper at heart and love photographing horses. Tonight, the CGA Varsity Polo team hosted the girls polo team from the University of Michigan. Adding to my excitement of being a Friday and the first Polo game of the season is the fact that I shot tonight using a brand new Nikon D300s that arrived today. I was an anxious mess all afternoon waiting for the game. Just ask my wife. I couldn’t sit still.
Both teams played well with the CGA team taking an early lead, which they held the entire first half. During the second half, the University of Michigan team dominated. They held the lead until half way through the 4th quater. The Culver girls came back and ended up winning 11 to 9. I’ve posted some photos here; you can find several more at www.culverphotos.com.
