Carson vs. Bishop Manogue Basketball tonight @ Carson High

What a night of basketball!  After the two JV games the Girls battled out a close finish, Manogue taking the win and I believe solidifying their first place in League… and the Carson boys squeaked out a win in overtime 73-70.

Here are some photo from the night…see all the action at the links on the side for the respective school… one more league night and then onto playoffs for the teams in the top 4 of each league.

CAHA Pee Wee AAA State Championship Hockey Tournament

This past weekend the California Amateur Hockey Association held their Pee Wee AAA State Championship Tournament at the South Lake Tahoe Ice Arena. The Las Angeles Jr Kings, Las Angeles Select Hockey and San Jose Jr Sharks were represented.

The three teams played each other twice with the Championship on Sunday morning.  Chris with Tahoe Sports & Entertainment was the local host for some great hockey!  The LA Selects came away with the Championship…  All three teams are now off to Quebec for an international Pee Wee tournament.

Douglas High Basketball… January 31, 2013

Basketball @ Douglas High tonight, vs. Reno… Check out all the images from the night at the link under Current Events…

First… a VERY big Congratulations to the Girls Varsity Coach Werner Christen!! He is now the winningest coach to ever coach at Douglas High… Great stuff Coach!!

I do believe this is a smiling Tiger… a result of the Varsity Boys game!  🙂 The Douglas Boys got out to a significant lead in the first half… the ever hyped Douglas Rooting Section chanting “single digits, single digits” just before the half…  Reno pulled closer as the game went on but they never had a chance as Douglas coasted to a win….

Carson Douglas Basketball @ Carson January 27, 2012

Carson Douglas Rivalry Basketball tonight at Carson High… There was a lot of “action” in the Boys JV game… 🙂  I’ll leave it at that… (sorry guys, I DO NOT have a photo of the “action” either… too many bodies in the way…)

The Carson Girls Varsity won and the Douglas Boys Varsity won… the Boys Varsity game went into overtime!!  What a HUGE turnaround from the CHS/DHS game at Douglas!!  Here are some photos from the night (click on them to see them bigger)… there are more at the link on the side.

Douglas Basketball vs. Spanish Springs… WOW!!!

Douglas High hosted Spanish Springs tonight… all I can say for the ending of the boys varsity game is WOW!!! WOW!!!! 1.5 seconds left in OT Douglas tips in a bucket for a two point lead, the clock wasn’t stopped so the refs talked and put 1.5 seconds back on the clock… Spanish Springs inbounds right in front of me… up to half… Hail Mary… SWISH!!! Buzzer beater 3 point to win it… Shock… that’s about all that I can say for the Douglas crowd… these two teams will see each other again for sure later in the playoffs… what a game!!

Don’t know how many 3’s this fella hit tonight… they kept leaving him alone out there and he kept hitting them… brought Douglas right back into the game in the second half…

Battle of the big guys tonight… Spanish Springs has some big fellas inside… Hunter’s body “control” at the end got the best of them though…

I’ve told several people, for last school year… so the 2010-2011 year… Hunter was my favorite athlete to photograph… the reason is simple… this kid WANTS TO WIN!!  The fire in the belly, the desire to beat the other team, the passion for the game… I LOVE that stuff… and I don’t see enough of it… but this guy, this team, I love watching!!

One shot from the Girls game earlier in the night… I just liked the shot… 🙂
