We Won!

Illinois Class A High School baseball champions, the Carrollton Hawks, come running out of the dugout before the final play of the game is completed.  If you look closely you can still see the first baseman stretched out and the runner still in motion.

Carrollton High School won the 2011 Illinois Class A Baseball Championship that was held recently in Peoria.  It was 95 degrees in the midday sun and the players took turns going into the hallway leading to the dugout as the cool air leaked out from from the locker room.

I liked the photo so much that I'm using it on my Twitter page (@mweaverpics) as well as this one.
