My grandson was the star running back during the Diamond All-American Football game in January 2016. He'd been tackled in previous plays, and broke loose often enough. But towards the end of the game, in this his very last football game while in high school, my grandson ran with the ball for about 40 yards before he was tackled and taken down, and hurt the back of his leg and his ankle in the process. In this photo, you can see the opponent grabbing for his foot in order to trip him up. You can also see a team mate tackling the opponent hoping to keep him from tackling my grandson, but it didn't work. My grandson's team had been behind in points on the board until towards the end of the game and ended up winning the game by a touchdown. When the game ended, my grandson was honored with the offensive game ball and deemed the Offensive Most Valuable Player. I took somewhere around 1500 to 1600 pictures of this game with my Canon EOS 70D and a Canon EF 75-300 lens. ISO set at 6400, f stop 5.6, and 1/250 seconds.
