Winter is in full swing here in Boston, and with Boston winter comes great college hockey. Yesterday, I bunkered up at TD Garden during an all-day snow storm to shoot the annual Beanpot Hockey Tournament consolation and championship games for Getty Images.
The consolation game was between Northeastern University and Harvard University, and the championship game between Boston College and Boston University.
I don’t shoot a ton of hockey, but these were two particularly action filled, high energy games. After a 35 minute power outage delay at the Garden, the championship game went to overtime following a dramatic three periods of scoreless hockey. Shortly into overtime, BC’s Alex Tuch hit the game winning goal.
After two long games hunched over in a pretzel position to shoot through the hole in the glass, I was pretty exhausted, but I enjoyed the battle. Thanks to Getty Images for having me shoot!

Here are a few photos from the 2015 Baseball Beanpot tournament yesterday at Fenway Park. First, Harvard University played Northeastern University in the consolation round. Right after that, Boston College took the field for the championship game against University of Massachusetts.
This turned out to be a nice game to shoot, as BC pulled out a close 2-0 victory to win the tournament.
I always love shooting college athletics. The players are never shy with their emotions, and that translates well for pictures.
