Legends

Wednesday's assignment took me to Charlotte to photograph ACC Media Day at ESPN's studio. I've been providing still photography coverage for the all-sports network for about ten years now.

The media day event includes players and coaches doing interviews live on television and radio. It's a packed day but definitely a fun one. There was a lot of excitement about the new teams (Syracuse, Pitt and Notre Dame) joining the league. 

Below, Syracuse coach Jim Boeheim, Duke coach Mike Krzyzewski and North Carolina coach Roy Williams share a light moment while in studio for a roundtable broadcast. I have to admit I enjoyed listening to these three talk basketball on camera and behind-the-scenes. All three coaches are definitely ready for the challenge of playing each other.
