1) Pure emotion and tight composition lifted this frame to the top.
2) The body language of the two athletes and their facial expressions are what makes sports such fun to cover.
3) Judges were drawn to the interesting composition with hands coming into the frame and a clean background. The variety of facial expressions communicate the team's joy.
