Maddy’s Monday Night Photos – Best of the West

Sunday, August 6th, 2006

For those of you who have been asking, we’ve posted the photos that Maddy took at the 16th Annual Best of the West Tournament in beautiful Santa Barbara, California last weekend.

Click the link here, then the menu buttons on the left for Gallery 1 and Gallery 2. The photos are of the semi-finals and championship game, only, as we didn’t make it up there until Sunday. You’ll also note that the photos are posted at Maddy’s (new) site, www.maddysphotos.com, as we’ve run out of space temporarily at Fastpitchwest. By the way, Amtrak proved to be a great way to go, should you get the chance in the future. The fields were just blocks from the train station, and a good portion of the ride runs right along the beach.

Photos from HOF “Tribute to Legends” Dinner

Wednesday, March 22nd, 2006

We’ve posted Maddy’s photos from the Hall of Fame “Tribute to Legends” Dinner held in Long Beach on Saturday, March 19, 2005. Click here to view the three galleries.

Gallery 3 contains group shots of 14 ISC Hall of Famers in attendance, including its newest members for 2006, Ed Klecker and Greg Sepulveda, in whose honor the dinner was held. We’ll be adding a recap of the evening’s festivities, which were MC’d by ISC Hall of Famer Hice Stiles.

In the meantime, hope you enjoy the photos. We will be adding captions with the names of the people in the pictures, so you can tell who’s who. Among my favorite photos are a few of fastballer Barry Woolery and his paintings that he did of (and for) Greg Sepulveda. Remarkable, and even more so in person.
