Sports

Full circle -- a collection of sports-oriented images bookending my image-making roots:

YOUNG GLADIATORS: TEXAS-STYLE YOUTH FOOTBALL
These images, shown in throwback Black & White, are part of a series documenting middle school, freshman and junior varsity football action in the Fort Worth, Texas suburb of Keller for six weeks in 2010.
The entire series can be seen at http://www.younggladiators.blogspot.com/ 


A player pysches himself before kickoff.


Pinched between a teammate and a defender, a pass receiver
makes an acrobatic catch.


A freshman player glistens in perspiration during a break.


Like their counterparts on the varsity, jayvee cheerleaders
emplore support from fans with equal vigor.

In the post-game light, a team receives from the coaching staff a verbal
 report card of their performance.
