Culver Indiana Senior Pictures: Connor Eustace Senior Photos
This morning, I shot CMA Senior Connor Eustace in his Varsity Sweater on the shores of Lake Maxinkuckee. With nice weather and a bright blue sky, I was able to get some photos with great color. In a few weeks, Connor will be leaving Culver Academy after two years to study and play Lacrosse at Hobart College in New York. Having shot Connor at a few Academy games, I’m sure that he’ll succeed.
Culver Academy Lacrosse Photos: CGA Varsity Lacrosse vs. Grosse Pointe
This afternoon, to wind up the Culver Academy Lacrosse Tournament, the CGA Varsity Lacrosse Team played against Grosse Pointe in a scrimmage game. Due to IHSAA regulations, the teams could not keep score because of the number of games that each team had played this week. The weather was great, and both teams appeared to be evenly matched. Not knowing the score, I’m not sure which team played better. Regardless, I think that the score would have been close.

Culver Academy Lacrosse Photos: CGA Varsity Lacrosse vs. Barrington
This evening, as part of a lacrosse tournament on Culver Academy’s campus, the CGA Varsity Lacrosse team played Barrington. The game started at around 7:30 so most of it was played under stadium lighting in dusk and early darkfall, which limited the quality of shots.
Barrington played well and took an early lead that was held for the first half of the game. In the second half, Culver came back to win the game with a final score of 6 to 4. It was a great game that was exicting and fun to watch. Both teams should be proud, as the win could have gone in either direction.

Culver Academy Lacrosse Photos: CMA Varsity vs. New Trier
This afternoon, I traveled to the campus of Notre Dame to follow Culver’s Varsity Lacrosse team as they played the Illinois State Champion team of New Trier. Did I say State Champions? I’m sorry. I should have said- the Illinois State Champions for the past 5 years! To say that this team is good is an understatement. They are a great team. Mix the intensity of the game with the surroundings, and it was a great game. (The game was played in Notre Dame’s Arlotta Stadium, which is truly a beautiful lacrosse facilty.)
New Trier did win the game with a final score of 10 to 5 after leading the entire game. I, however, do not feel that that final score is truly reflective of Culver’s abilities. In the third period, Culver overcame a several point deficit to bring the score within a point. Had Culver played that way the whole game, they could have won this one. I’d love to see these two teams meet again.

Culver Academy Lacrosse Photos: CMA JV Lacrosse vs. Homestead
This afternoon, the CMA JV Lacrosse team hosted a game against Homestead on Culver’s lacrosse field that overlooks Lake Maxinkuckee. The weather was beautiful and because there was no wind, Culver’s crew teams could be seen practicing in the background.
Culver’s JV Lacrosse team proved to be a more seasoned team than Homestead’s team. Unfortunately for both teams, the game was one-sided. Culver’s offense and Homestead’s defense had 95% of the game’s action. I think that against other High School teams, Homestead probably would have performed ok. In recent years though, Culver’s Lacrosse program has proven to be a powerhouse with their JV and Varsity programs. I’ve posted a handful of pictures here.

Culver Academy Softball Photos: CGA JV Softball vs. John Glenn
This afternoon, I had to decide between shooting the CGA JV Softball game or the CMA Varsity Baseball game. As this was the first home game for the Culver JV Softball team, I decided to shoot their game. Their season is shorter than many of the other teams so I wanted to get photos of them while I had the chance.
It was a beautiful night, sunny and not too hot, in Culver for the CGA Eagles’ first JV Softball game of the season as they hosted John Glenn High School. The girls played their hearts out and had a lot of fun and showed great sportsmanship even though they didn’t get the result they wanted. The Culver’s JV Softball team is a very new team. I’m told that they have a few girls playing that have never played softball before. Knowing this, I stopped paying attention to the score and focused on how the girls played and interacted with one another as a team. From my vantage point, they seemed to get along and still enjoy the game. And, they have the groundwork to come together as a team. I’ve posted a few of my favorite photos here.

Culver Academy Rugby Photos: CMA Varsity Rugby vs. Warsaw
This afternoon, despite a massive downpour, the CMA Varisty Rugby team hosted Warsaw at Culver Academy’s Fleet Field. It was a wet, muddy mess, but no one seemed to care as Culver scored in the first minute of the game. Culver played extremely well and won, even though Warsaw made a great effort in the second half of the game. I posted some photos here.

Culver Academy Rugby Photos: CMA Varsity Rugby vs. Marion
This afternoon, as part of Culver’s Parents’ Weekend, the CMA Varsity Rugby team hosted a game with Marion. The weather was cloudy and rainy, but the game still went on and the kids played their hearts out. Culver lost, but they put forth a great effort. I’ve posted some photos here. Additional photos can be found at http://www.culverphotos.com/p1035038811. Due to some requests, I’ve also posted some monochrome (black and white) photos at http://www.culverphotos.com/p866293861.
Culver Academy Lacrosse Photos: CGA Varsity Lacrosse vs. Noblesville
This morning, as part of a lacrosse tournamanet, the CGA Varsity Lacrosse team played against the Noblesville High School for the first game of the event hosted at Culver Academies. The CGA Eagles played well and won the game 9-to-6. There are some photos here; more are posted at http://www.culverphotos.com/p947772495.
Culver Academy Lacrosse Photos: CMA JV Lacrosse vs. Rockhurst Jesuit
This morning, the CMA JV Lacrosse team played the JV team from Rockhurst Jesuit. This team traveled to Culver with their Varsity team that played Culver last night. The skies were cloudy, but the game was rain-free, unlike other games played this weekend. Due to other sporting events, I was only able to watch half the game. What I did see showed that Culver would bring home the victory. In addition to the photos posted here, there are more photos at http://www.culverphotos.com/p675592401.
