I know I’m stepping back in time a couple months with this post, but I realized I never posted one of my favorite photos from this winter sports season. This particular photo is from a basketball game at Milan.
Most people were focused on the game, but as her attire shows, this particular little girl — the younger sister of a Milan basketball player — was there for the cheerleaders. At every timeout she would find her way onto the court, dancing and enthusiastically waving her pompoms. But each time she noticed the Milan varsity cheerleaders making their way onto the court, she would stop dancing to watch the cheerleaders’ routines.

Chelsea’s Arctic Coliseum hosted the SEC Hockey Showcase, featuring seven SEC teams and one non-SEC team. (Ordinarily it would be eight SEC teams, but one program had to close down this year.) I photographed three of the four games.
