HS Basketball Sectional Championships. aka "March Madness..."

Did somebody ask if I wanted to work through this weekend...? This is perhaps my favorite time of year for work, particulary covering sports. It is (finally) the beginning of the high school sectional championship games here in our area. Besides covering marquee events like graduation at West Point, the annual Army - Navy football game on the road, and POTUS (Obama) there last December, nothing gets me as pumped as the beginning of HS championship & possibly the state tournament games, and following our teams upstate.

Yesterday began a weekend of 8 games at 2 college gyms; where I'll haul in 4 - studio strobes to light these venues, expect to use 3 cameras for each game (one remote body), edit and transmit on site, and of course chew a lot of gum...

Here's a preview so far from last night's games. Off to SUNY New Paltz' gym for four games today - all on strobes. Stay tuned. ~cg.
