Place Name: First Place Contestant Name: The Recorder Entry Title: Squished but Determined Entry Credit: Gavin Dressler Judge Comment: Best of this division by a long shot in composition and focus. Being black and white did not hurt.
Place Name: Second Place Contestant Name: The Recorder Entry Title: Up and Over Entry Credit: Gavin Dressler Judge Comment: Good tackle attempt photo. Just a bit sharper than the third-place finisher in this division. Good job on keeping both players in the image.
Place Name: Third Place Contestant Name: The News & Record Entry Title: Foot, Ball, Face Entry Credit: David Conner II Judge Comment: Good soccer action, but just a touch less sharp than the second-place finisher.
Competition Comment: The four awarded photos were a bit ahead of the rest. Some potential among the photographers.
