Men's and Women's Soccer Begin

I’ve moved back to school and have finally settled into my new house. First week of classes went smoothly, and I started shooting sports again. I am on the verge of buying a 400mm 2.8, so these will hopefully be my last photos with my 300 f/4. The extra stop will help a lot with night games, especially with my 1D Mark II which looks pretty bad at ISO 3200.

Anyway, here are a few photos from the last 2 games I shot. Excuse the grain from my 1D.
