Southeast – May 2026 – Sports Action

Judges Comments

The handoff received first place because it demonstrates unique coverage at a daily assignment. Second place is a unique sport, but the lighting isn't great. Third place is a moment we see quite often in football, but the photographer was in a great spot to get the frame. HM image is a clean moment and a concise caption.
