After shooting the South Doyle vs Farragut rugby match, I decided to stay for one more game.  This game was for the Conference Girls Cup Championship.  Both teams played real solid each half.  In the end though, it was Maryville coming away with the 13-10 victory over Karns.

Wednesday night I was assigned to cover the Maryville vs Farragut baseball game at Farragut High School.  I was actually a little surprised at the outcome of the game.  The last time these two teams met was on March 22 at Maryville. Farragut lost that game 4-1.  I’m sure payback was a motivating factor on Wednesday night but I honestly expected the score to be a little closer than it was.  Farragut won the game by shutting out the Maryville Rebels 8-0.  I didn’t look at the stats book at the end of the game, but I counted at least 12 strikeouts by Farragut’s Phillip Pfiefer.  The last game I covered that he was the starting pitcher, he recorded 15 strikeouts.  It was also one of the first times I’ve seen a person bunt the ball and end up on third base at the end of the play.100414180327-080 100414180712-800 100414181115-150 100414181833-290 100414183047-000 100414183049-370 100414183105-890 100414183109-620 100414183200-290 100414183308-100 100414185840-980 100414190341-290 100414190545-000 100414190846-340 100414191036-130 100414191916-410 100414192008-100 100414192501-100 100414192712-520 100414193039-000 100414194735-890 100414194856-880 100414195055-080 100414195317-110 100414200021-700

With the baseball game starting at 6:30, I left the softball game around 6:20.  I was confident I had what I needed anyways.  When I arrived at the baseball game, they had just finished the national anthem.  I went up to the press box to get the line-ups and then proceeded to shot the game.  Maryville got off to an early lead.  For the rest of the game, while I was there, Bearden would be playing catch-up.  The final score was 6-5 in Maryville’s favor. Since my assignment was to cover only Bearden, that is who I primarily covered.

As I mentioned in the previous post, my assignment was to cover the Farragut girls in the championship game.  I was setup so that I would be covering them in the second half.  Normally I would like to cover them in the first half so that way I am certain I have what I need for the night.  Unfortunately for Farragut, they just couldn’t stop Maryville.  They trailed almost the entire game. Congratulations to Maryville for winning the district in their 55-44 victory over Farragut.

Tuesday night I was assigned to cover Farragut High School for their games against Maryville High School at Maryville.  Since Maryville is a gym I had never shot at before, I tried to get there as soon as I got off work.  There are two things I am primarily looking for.  1) Easily accessible power outlets that don’t require some crazy stringing of power cords.  2) Rails where I can mount my super-clamps so that the lights will be behind the goal.  Luckily Maryville had both, so I decided I would use my strobes.  While I was there to primarily cover Farragut, it ain’t easy moving my lights around, so I ended up shooting quite a bit of Maryville as well.  The Farragut girls lost 47-56 while the Farragut boys won 53-49.
