Since last year, I knew my next project was going to involve lacrosse.  By far, lacrosse is my favorite sport to photograph and I enjoy everything about it: From watching the game to knowing the players. My original plan was to follow the UNC men&#8217;s team behind the scene.  Starting from the first practice in August to the NCAA tournament and all the moments in between.  Then the NCAA announced that Duke lacrosse members from the 2006 team would gain another year of eligibility, bringing back seniors from this year.  Four we know of <a href=\"http:\/\/www.insidelacrosse.com\/page.cfm?pagerid=2&amp;news=fdetail&amp;storyid=168533\" target=\"_blank\" title=\"Inside Lacrosse story on Duke Seniors\">are returning<\/a>.  This has me drifting towards the Duke camp due to their enormous potential in the national championship. Now I can&#8217;t decide.  Here are some of the pros of each:UNC<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>My alma mater.<\/li>\n<li>Know many of the players and some of the coaches.<\/li>\n<li>UNC is an incredible team on the rise.  If UNC was a stock, I would put every last penny into them.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Duke<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Geographically closer for me.  I can get to Duke in about 10 min from my house vs 20 min for UNC.<\/li>\n<li>Know the head coach and a few of the players.<\/li>\n<li>Very legitimate shot of going to the NCAA Final Four in Boston.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>So I&#8217;m not sure what I&#8217;m going to do.  Possibly I could do a little bit of both and highlight the rivalry between the two teams?  In any case, I&#8217;m going to need to decide soon.  I think in August the teams will typically have tryouts for walk-ons.  So they start soon.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Now that Brackman is gone and drafted by the NY damn Yankees, I am itching for a new photo project.
