Double duty

Photojournalism

Dual assignments for shooting Floyd’s 14-13 come from behind victory over Lebanon in the state semi-final football tournament.  Since Lebanon is down in the far western corner of the state, the Bristol Herald-Courier, a sister publication to The Floyd Press in the Media General chain, asked for photos.

It’s been a while since I shot on a daily newspaper deadline and darkness fell on the studio as I readied six prints to transmit to the chief photographer in Bristol. They used one in the web story (left) of Luke Harris getting tackled but I haven’t seen the print edition yet.

The Roanoke Times coverage includes several excellent photos from Justin Cook.

Floyd will meet Gretna in the state final at 4:15 p.m. Saturday in Salem Stadium.
