Over the years, I have had the great opportunity to photograph a wide variety of things. , When something new comes my way it always adds a bit more excitement to the challenge. This Fall I had the opportunity to photograph Cross Country for the first time, and I was able do it twice!

The first opportunity was a nice warm day in September. The University of Michigan was hosting the Big Ten Preview. I was blessed to be able to work again with the great staff and teams from Rutgers.

The next opportunity brought a whole new set of challenges, SNOW! The wind chill was below 10 degrees Fahrenheit and there was a few inches of snow. The atmosphere there felt more like a cross country skiing event, and definitely not running. Needless to say, I welcomed the challenge to photograph the NCAA DIII championship at Michigan State University for NCAA Photos. It was great to be able to work with them again and capture this event and the Olivet Comets were excellent hosts! Enjoy!
