Culver Academy Basketball Photos: CGA JV Basketball vs. Knox
After a rocky start this evening against Knox High School, the CGA JV Basketball Team pulled things together for an easy win. Trailing at the first period, Culver made some subsitutions and then got energized themselves. After the first period, Knox High School had little chance of winning as Culver dominated the rest of the game. The final score, 32-17. I’ve posted a couple of photos here, but there are more at www.culverphotos.com.

Culver Academy Basketball Photos: CMA Varsity Basketball vs. South Bend Adams
Some days I’m thankful that I’m self employed and working for myself. Today was one of those days because I would have been fired if I worked for a magazine or newspaper. Tonight, the CMA Varsity Basketball Team hosted the South Bend Adams Team in Culver, Indiana in one of the most exciting games that I’ve ever watched. When things get intense during a game, I sometimes forget about being a photographer and taking photos and instead, i get caught up in the game and being a fan! Tonight, this hppened. Tonight, I missed a shot that that I’ll probably never see again in my life. Tonight, I even forgot to write down the final score. All I know or care about is that Culver won their first home game of the season. And they won it in the last second of the game!
The game was well played by both teams and was exiting to watch as their was no clear dominate team. With a packed gym full of fans from both sides. the intensity grew during the 4th period when it became appearant that either team could win the game. With 5 seconds left in the game and the CMA Eagles down by 1, a three pointer shot was taken. As the ball approached the rim, #42 on Culver’s team, jumped up and dunked the ball through the rim. The buzzer sounded as the ball hit the floor. Culver won by a point and the fans went nuts. During those last seconds, I was a spectator instead of a photographer! I may have missed the shot, but I was at least fortunate to have been witness to this play. Find more photos from this game at wwww.culverphotos.com. There are tons of great shots of the action!

Tonight, I took photos of High School Basketball at its best. This was the first game of the evening with the CMA Eagles JV Basketball team hosting South Bend Adams. The teams were well matched with no team dominating the game. The Culver Academy JV team fought hard, but couldn’t pull out a victory. The final score was 35-42. I’ve posted some photos here; there are more at www.culverphotos.com.
CCHS Basketball Photos: Culver Community 7th Grade Basketball vs. Rochester
This was the sceond game of the evening played at Culver Community’s Middle School. In this game, the 7th Grade Basketball Team faced off against the 7th Grade Team from Rochester. The Culver team played hard and never gave up even in the face of defeat. I’ve seen plenty of High School teams that could have learned from these kids who played until the end and never believed that they couldn’t come back and win. It was a fun game to watch though I wish the outcome had been different. The final score was 10-35. I’ve posted a few photos here; there are lots more in the Culver Community School Corporation section at www.culverphotos.com.

If you haven’t been to a middle school sporting event in a while, I strongly recommend that you attend one where ever you happen to be from. They are just fun to watch as the kids are still learning and working on their skills and they haven’t forgotten the enjoyment aspect of playing. This evening, the Culver Community Middle School’s 8th Grade Basketball Team hosted the Rochester Zebras. This game was dominated by Culver who kept the lead throughout the game. It was an easy victory for Culver. They won 46-35. I’ve posted some photos here; there are more at www.culverphotos.com.
CCHS Basketball Photos: CCHS Varsity Basketball vs. Rochester Zebras
This was the second basketball game of the evening between the varsity teams from Culver Community High School and the Rochester Zebras. (The earlier game involved the Girls’ Varsity teams, while this was the Boys’ teams.) Like the earlier game, this game was also close and kept fan on the edge of their seats. The Cavaliers lead after the first quarter, trailed by 7 at the half, and were down by two going into the fourth quarter. Even with two and half minutes left, Culver was only down a point. It was a great game and fun to watch, but CCHS couldn’t pull out a win. Final Score: Culver-51, Rochester- 57. I’ve posted some photos here; there are several more at www.culverphotos.com.

Don’t let the final score fool you! In the matchup this evening between the Girls Varsity Basketball Team of Culver Community High School and the Lady Zebras from Rochester High School, the score is deceiving. The final score was Culver- 49, Rochester- 54. This was a nail biter of a game. The first quarter ended tied at 14. At the half and also after the 3rd period, Culver trailed by 9. With 3 minutes left in the game, Culver tied the game. At two and half minutes left, the score was tied again. With 26 seconds left in the game, Culver was up by 1 point. This ended when with 19 seconds left in the game, the Zebras hit a 3-point shot. The Lady Cavaliers played well and were in the right position to win. Unfortunately, things didn’t go their way. It was a great game and I, like most everyone there, was on the edge of my seat for the last couple of minutes. I’ve posted my favorite photos here; there are more posted at www.culverphotos.com.
CCHS Basketball Photos: Culver Community Freshman Boys Basketball vs. John Glenn
Tonight, I had a little free time while waiting for my wife to get out of a Town Council meeting, so I watched the CCHS Freshman Basketball Team play John Glenn. I was hoping to watch more, but a Council meeting two nights before Thanksgiving generally means the schedule is light, so I was called early to pick up my wife. The Culver Cavaliers played well. At the half, Culver was trailing, but I don’t know the final outcome of the game, as I had to leave. I hope they continued to play hard and closed the gap. I’ve posted a few photos here; there are more at www.culverphotos.com.
Culver Academy Basketball Photos: CMA Varsity Basketball vs. St. Joe
Tonight, I photographed a scrimmage between Culver Acadmey and St. Joseph High School’s Varsity Basketball team. I must say, I have a lot to learn about how scimmages are played. I watched four periods and left confused as I didn’t know if anyone won because the score was reset to zero at the end of each period. I posted some photos here; there are more at www.culverphotos.com.
