After covering a late soccer game earlier in the week it was nice covering this game during the day. Its always a pleasure to just be out shooting and when its a great game - all the better. Here are some of my favorites from the game.

Lakewood Girls Varsity Soccer vs Wilson
Wilson is always a tough team and I knew that it would be a rough game to shoot, as the action will go back and fourth rather quickly making it hard to position yourself. All-in-all I think I did a pretty good job.
I"ll start with some solo action shots. I like these because they have all the elements of a great action shot. The player is in a motion of action, the ball is in the shot, and they are in the air jumping.
What's a soccer game with a few headers and with these two teams I'm always guaranteed to get some good action and a lot of headers.
Now for these last two shots. One of them was taken using my trick while the other was taken during the game. So the question is can you tell me which was taken during the game and which was taken while she was warming up.

Girls Varsity Soccer "Lakewood vs Wilson"
Lakewood and Wilson, what can you say. These two teams go at it hard when they meet and I can always expect some great action. Now wheather I capture that action is a different story. Wilson is pretty much the #1 team in CIF and our girls (Lakewood) lost against them during their first meet. Lakewood was up 1-0, but late in the second half Wilson came back hard and put two goals on the board to win the game.
Well this game was no different. Wilson started by scoring first and it wasn't until late in the first half that Lakewood answered with a goal of their own. Lakewood kept the tie until late in the second half when Wilson had the opportunity to take the lead with a penalty kick. Lakewood's goalie is great and I enjoy watching her and capturing her in action. She's not afraid to get dirty or take a hit. She made a great dive but was unable to block Wilson's kick. Great game to watch.
This will be my last varsity season game, as I need to get some shots of the Jr. Varsity team for their banquet. Lakewood will more than likely make the playoffs and I'll be there getting the action, but until that time I'm finished.
