Missouri made the short trip to St. Louis to play Illinois at the Scottrade Center in St. Louis on Saturday and I made the drive down to St. Louis to cover it after having missed out last year.  


Oh how this proves timing is everything, or maybe I should have been shooting a little wider, either way, a great emotional photo ruined for the simple fact that it’s missing the ball… oh well.

Overall it was a blast shooting in the Scottrade Center, good light, the crowd was nice and loud like it should be, and I was even on TV a few times.  The only negative is that I was fallen upon by a player and that resulted in the front end of my 24-70 being thrown just a bit out of wack… oh well, it was bound to happen eventually.

I decided it was time to get out my tilt and shift lens and have some fun when the Tigers took on the Purdue Boilermakers on Saturday afternoon at Mizzou Arena.  The Tigers were overcome by a late surge from the Boilermakers but came back late in the 2nd half to win 73-63.

Gymnastics season is upon us.  The Tigers held the annual inter-squad meet this evening.  Now if only I had an 85 f/1.2…


The Tigers defeated Mississippi Valley State tonight 69-52.  More basketball tomorrow with a mens game against Purdue and then on to the inter-squad gymnastics meet.
