Both Castle and Memorial won their games. These were so fun to watch and take photos of. I've never really taken photos of soccer and this was a good opportunity to gain some skills since soccer is such a fast paced sport.While these aren't all the photos I took that day, these are my top 5 I picked out from both games.

These teams both have worked tirelessly to get better and work as a team. Fri, 02 Oct 2026 17:48:20 +0000 https://www.wpsrhd.com/blogs/hometown-lens/post/hometown-lens-a-week-full-of-action/ o384-2162-6abfee641c7de Payton Romig There’s something special about capturing high school sports through a camera. From the intensity of a volleyball rally to the energy of a Friday night football game, every moment tells a story. Sports photography isn’t just about getting the perfect action shot—it’s about capturing the emotion, determination, teamwork, and memories that make these games meaningful.

This past week I took photos of both Football and Volleyball. The intensity of these sports are just unmatched. From a touchdown to a ACE the fans, teams, coaches, players, everyone was just just had so much excitement.

Every week I’ll tell you the local high school sports happening in the Evansville area. I’ll also include some photos from the local games I've attended recently. This post has both Central's scrimmage with Gibson Southern and Central's homecoming game against Boonville. While the Boonville game was very close with a score of 22-28 we just couldn't get one last touchdown in. As a high school student, Friday Night Lights are some of my favorite experiences. But as a photographer It's even more exciting to tell the game's story through photo form.
