NDSU vs Kansas

I played photographer for about 2 minutes during a timeout. The rest of the time I was the proud HS Coach of the game's star, Ben Woodside. It was a great run for the Bison and they gave the Jayhawks all they could handle. Woody again proved to the nation that he is one of the best. Way to go, buddy.

Just a little sample of the "homecourt advantage" the Bison had!

12.10.07 NDSU @ MINNESOTA MEN'S BASKETBALL

Okay, I did have a vested interest outside simply shooting this game between my two favorite college hoops teams...NDSU'S point guard and the nation's 5th leading scorer, Ben Woodside is a former player! I relish each opportunity to see him play and always nice to have the camera along.

Speaking of camera...this was my first shoot with the new Canon 40D. Got it just in time. I love the bolstered speed and viewfinder is impressive as well. There are a lot of new features which I loved immediately and will spare you the technical details.

Gopher/NDSU Basketball

My first basketball game!! I went with to watch my buddy Woody and the NDSU Bison play against the Golden Gophers at Williams Arena. I wore my Little Bison Hoopster #10 shirt and everything. I stayed awake for whole game and really loved watching all the action under those bright lights. The only time I didn't like it was when the Gophers made a three-pointer at the buzzer to end the half and the crowd went crazy...I started crying. Maybe partly because I wanted NDSU to win!!! I fell asleep after the game, but Woody held me for a minute and a couple photos. We'll have those in the NDSU gallery under sports!

It was a great night and my first of many basketball games. I am excited to see the KW Knights play on Friday night.
