\"Blue…the Blue Devils actually. After beating my Heels Sunday, the Duke men’s lacrosse team is heading to Baltimore for the Final Four. The opportunity has come up for me to travel with the team and photograph the behind-the-scenes as they head to the semifinals and possibly the national championship. The opportunity was frankly too much to pass-up; it’s not every day I get the chance to follow a team that is national championship bound, especially in a sport I love so much. If this was softball, can’t say I’d be one-tenth as excited (my apologies to all the softball players reading this).<\/p>\n

Sooooooo, I will be shipping out with the team tomorrow to head to Baltimore. The team plays first on Saturday and if they win, will play again on Monday. My guess is I will be home Monday after they win the title. They have so many weapons it’s hard seeing them not win.<\/p>\n

My Tar Heel brethern are probably shaking their heads right now at me for going up with Duke; especially the guys on the UNC men’s lacrosse team. Sorry guys, I hope you’ll understand!I’m excited and a little nervous about this trip. I only know one player on the entire Duke team so I’ll feel out of place for a while. Much unlike the UNC team where I know half the guys and went to college with one of the assistant coaches. But I’ll deal; I have had to do it before.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
