Last month I was able to work with NCAA Photos once again to capture the NCAA Division I Women’s Water Polo Championship at Canham Natatorium on the University of Michigan campus in Ann Arbor. Previously, I had worked with the NCAA to photograph the NCAA Women’s Basketball Tournament First & Second Rounds at U of M. It was good to be back on campus and working with the NCAA. It was a unique challenge as water polo is not a frequent sport here in Michigan. Being that I was working for the NCAA, it requires capturing the action, but also the atmosphere before and after. This would include things like the team arrivals and celebration afterwards. Without further ado, here are some of the images from the day. Hope you enjoy the images. Enjoy!
