Idaho State Girls Basketball Tournament (Day 1)

This week I am covering the Girls Idaho State Basketball Tournament for IdahoSports.com.   Photographing the State Tournament requires a lot of hours.  The drive to Boise from Northern Idaho requires a lot of hours behind the wheel, photographing at least 4 games a day requires a lot of time behind the lens and then after the games are finished the editing requires many late night and early morning hours in front of the computer.  State takes a large investment of time but the quality of play combined with the drama and emotion of the tournament is a recipe for a very fun and exciting three days of basketball.  Here are a few highlights from the games I covered on day 1.
