Place Name: First Place Contestant Name: St. Cloud Times Entry Title: Big air Entry Credit: David Schwarz Judge Comment: The action in this photo is great. The photographer caught the girl at just the right moment. The girls' ponytails flying and the expressions on their faces makes this a great photo.
Place Name: Second Place Contestant Name: Brainerd Dispatch Entry Title: Winterfest Entry Credit: Kelly Humphrey Judge Comment: I love that this is a different type of sports photo. You have snow and action, but also kites in the background. It's a good mix of images.
Place Name: Third Place Contestant Name: Mankato - The Free Press Entry Title: Football practice resumes Entry Credit: Pat Christman Judge Comment: How high can you leap? This guy got some serious air and it made for a great photo.
Competition Comment: Judging this contest was difficult, as there were many good entries. However, some were out of the norm for a sports photo and those were the most appealing ones. Congratulations to the winners. All entrants did a good job.
