First place was a well-captured moment showing the coach letting loose where the photographer stuck with the team past the usual on-court celebrations. We liked the clean frame showing the emotion of a loss through a simple clear gesture for second place. The third place image was a nice look to the periphery for something different. A couple strong single images in this category suffered because they were part of a multiple image entry that didn't hold up against the winners.
