Penn downs Mishawaka in softball semifinal

I haven’t shot softball in almost ages. Last time I photographed it was as an intern at the Austin American-Statesman two years ago.

Canyon-Magnolia Texas softball tourney

I worked a later shift today and covered two games in the UIL softball state semifinals. The first was a bit challenging because the harshness of the sunlight at the field. Shooting in harsh, mid-day sunlight is hard because you have to tip toe around your shots, waiting for subjects to pass through shade or to face the sun directly. Today was also challenging because it was extremely hot. A thermometer on the outfield scoreboard hit 95 degrees at one time.

Kraatz's score was the first of the game as Magnolia won 2-0 to advance to Saturday's 4A championship game.
