MCHS Baseball and Girl’s Soccer

FINALLY got to shoot some spring sports yesterday….in the COLD!  Well, JV Girl’s Soccer and JV Baseball weren’t too bad, but it was a bit chilly at the varsity games.  I didn’t shoot all of any of them, but you can click on the appropriate picture below to see the gallery from that game.

First up, MCHS JV Girl’s Soccer vs Strasburg.  I was there for most of the first half, Madison was up 3-0 at the break with goals by Jessica Sorrell and two by Makayla Taylor.

Next, JV Baseball vs Orange.  They eventually lost to Orange 8-5.

And, MCHS Varsity Girl’s Soccer vs Strasburg.  I got there late in the first half, Madison had a 1-0, and would eventually win 1-0.

And, finally, Varsity Baseball vs Orange.  From @madisonpride on Twitter, Madison scored two runs in the bottom of the seventh to defeat Orange 7-6.

And one more, if you saw my “drone” post over on JohnBerryPhotography.com, you know I have a new toy.  I’ve had the GoPro camera for several years now, but the quadcopter is a new addition.  I wondered if I’d be able to get a decent photo of the baseball field after dark, since the GoPro isn’t really designed as a low-light camera.  It’s a little grainy, but not too bad.  That’s Food Lion above the field in the photo.  I was hoping to also have Main St in the photo, but didn’t have quite the right angle.  I took off from the middle of the Young Farmer’s tractor pull track, and probably should have been closer, but didn’t want to disturb the game….although I hear some did spot the “UFO” flying near the field last night 🙂

3rd Annual Leprechaun Launch 5K and Children’s 1/2 Mile Obstacle Race

Published by under Leprechaun Launch

First of all, a big THANKS to everyone who works so hard to put this on!!  Particularly Valerie Miller who heads up the whole thing…..but, she has LOTS of helpers!  It grows every year with over 130 participants this year including adults and children.   And I’m sure all the water sliders were happy when the sun came out!  I have to apologize for missing getting photos of the tire swing obstacle.  I guess I was too excited to get over to the water slide :-).  Click any of the photos below to see the gallery.  And, stay tuned, I shot a little video along with the stills, I hope to put together something with that sometime next week.
