A weekend of Ohio University sports

This week I spent my Friday and Saturday photographing Ohio University varsity games.

On Friday I took photos at the Ohio University hockey team's season opener against John Carroll University at Bird Arena in Athens. John Carroll defeated Ohio University in overtime.

This Saturday I spent my afternoon photographing the Ohio University football team take on Austin Peay at Peden Field. For the first half of the game, a steady drizzle of rain was descending upon the game, but it cleared up into a beautiful Fall afternoon after half-time. The Bobcats shut out the Governors 38 - 0 for Ohio University's third straight win.
