Culver Academy Hockey Photos: CGA U19 Hockey vs. Traverse City
The second hockey game of the afternoon was the CGA U19 team that played against Traverse City. The girls played well with the CGA team dominating the entire game. I’m not sure what the final score was, but with three minutes left in the game, Culver was up by 8 goals. I’ve posted some photos here; you can find more in the Culver Academies sports gallery at www.culverphotos.com.
Culver Academy Hockey Photos: CMA Prep Hockey vs. Shattuck St. Mary’s
This afternoon the Culver Academy Prep Hockey team hosted Shattuck St. Mary for a matchup on Culver Academy’s campus. The game started strongly with the CMA Eagles scoring the first point right away in the first period. Culver held their lead for the remainder of that period and 17 minutes and 59 seconds of the second period. (The actual offical scoring time according to the ref was with 1.5 seconds left in the second half.) Though sitting next to the timer, it was closer than that as none of us knew if it was a valid point as it was SO CLOSE to the buzzer.) Culver had problems in the third period that they couldn’t recover from; the final score was Culver 2, St. mary’s 4. You can find more photographs at www.culverphotos.com.

Today was the rematch between Culver’s Prep Hockey team and St. Mary’s Hockey team. Unfortunately, I was able to stay for just 2 of the 3 periods due to a prior engagement. I’m told that I missed a great 3rd period. In what I did watch, St. Mary’s learned from the game last night and proved to be a tough opponent in this game. I’m told that the final score ended in a tie 1-to-1 with Culver scoring in the last seconds of the game for a tie.

I’m not sure what happened overnight since yesterday’s loss to this same team, but today, the CMA Eagles came to play. This afternoon, the CMA U16 Hockey team got a rematch game against the Pittsburg Jr. Penguins. The game was not a disappointment with Culver dominating the ice throughout the game. With a final score of 6-to-1, the Eagles redeemed themselves. I’ve posted a few photos here; find tons more in the online gallery located at www.culverphotos.com.
Culver Academy Hockey Photos: CMA U16 Hockey vs. Pittsburg Penguins
This weekend, the Culver Military Academy U16 Hockey Team hosted the Pittsburg Jr. Penguin’s Hockey Team for two matchups- one Saturday and one Sunday. In Saturday’s game, the CMA Eagles fought hard but were outplayed. It was an exciting game, though I wish the outcome had been different. The final score was 3-4. I’ve posted some photos here; there are more under the Culver Academy, Culver Sports section at www.culverphotos.com.
Culver Academy Hockey Photos: CMA Varsity Hockey vs. NW Chargers
Today, I took photos of Culver Academy’s Boy’s Varsity Hockey team as they played the NW Chargers. This was the second match up of these teams during the weekend, though I was shooting a different hockey match last night when they played. As an observer who has never played hockey, I’m not the best judge of whether a team is playing well or not. Unfortunately, the team lost by more than a couple of points. I still managed to get some great shots using my new D300s that I purchased a couple of days ago. I’ve posted my favorite photos here; there are more hockey photos and Culver photos at www.culverphotos.com.
Culver Academy Hockey Photos: CMA Prep Hockey vs. Lansing Capitals
Culver Academy photos. What’s there not to love? It is much more enjoyable when Culver plays strong and wins. Tonight, for the second game of the evening (actually it was the 4th, but I’ve yet to figure out how to be in two rinks at the same time), the CMA Prep Team played the Lansing Capitals. The enitre game was dominated by the CMA Eagles who played well as a team and showed some great passing skills. The final score was Culver-5 and Lansing- 1. I’ve posted some photos here, but you can find over 100 more at www.culverphotos.com.
Culver Academy Hockey Photos: CGA U19 Hockey vs. C.Y.A
Today, I shot photos for the Culver Academy Girls U19 Hockey Team; they played against C.Y.A. It was a great game. The CGA team took an early lead that they held the entire game. The girls did better than the last game that I shot at staying out of the penalty box, which was a key facor in winning the game. The final score was Culver- 3, CYA-2. I’ve posted some photos here, though there are more located at www.culverphotos.com.
Culver Academy Hockey Photos: CMA Varsity Hockey vs. Carmel
Some things never change! 25 years ago, the Carmel Hockey teams were a big rival for the Culver Hockey program and it appears that the same still holds true. Carmel proved to be a tough competitor for the CMA Varsity Hockey Team at today’s home game, but the CMA Eagles emerged victorious. The final score was Culver-4 and Carmel-2. In all fairness to Carmel, the score should have been 3 to 2 as one of Culver’s points occured on a pass back on Carmel’s part to their goalie who either sliped or misread the pass, allowing a slow-moving puck to get by him. As thankful as everyone was on Culver’s side for the point, the coaches, the fans, and the players felt compassion for the young man because it was an accident that shouldn’t have resulted in a score. I’ve posted some of my favorite photos from the game here. You can find more at www.culverphotos.com.
Culver Academy Hockey Photos: CMA Varsity Hockey vs. Prairie Ridge High School
This morning, the CMA Eagle’s Varsity Hockey Team played their second game against the Prairie Ridge High School Hockey Team. Plagued by penalties and up against a team that used the previous night’s loss to refresh, regenerate, and relight their passion, the Culver Academy Eagles did not fair well. I don’t know if the Prairie Ridge team studied the tapes from last night or if their desire to win was just that strong. Regardless, they played well and capitalized on CMA’s penalties. The final score was CMA-1, Prairie Ridge-5. I’ve posted some photos here; there are 200 more at www.culverphotos.com. Look under the Culver Academy/Culver Sports section.
