Monday morning I received an email from my editor asking if I was interested in covering the Horizon League Tournament championship game the next day. I was open and thought it would be a great chance to shoot some college basketball, something that I don’t shoot that often. With little time to waste, I had to plan my trip. Luckily I was able to find a hotel nearby that was not already booked full for the night. I made the trip down to Dayton, OH and arrived early to check into my hotel. After checking in, I made my way over to Wright State University. The game was held at WSU’s Nutter Center in Dayton. The Wright State Raiders were hosting the Milwaukee Panthers in this important match up, with the winner guaranteed a spot in the big dance. Here are some of the images from Milwaukee’s win. Enjoy!
