    Very cool. Love the last in the series. The thrill of victory caught in a frame.

    I'd have to check the files but if memory serves ISO 2500 at 1/400 and around f2 to f2.5 with the Nikon D7000 and Nikkor 50mm f1.8.

    Sorry to say that this fine team lost in a close NCAA Tournament match to Purdue on Friday. Does nothing to to negate the wonderful season they put together. Thanks for the looks and the comments.
