FPD Lady Vikings win GHSA State Championship – Macon School Photographer http://abphotos.com/wordpress/2011/05/16/fpd-lady-vikings-win-ghsa-state-championship-macon-school-photographer/ http://abphotos.com/wordpress/2011/05/16/fpd-lady-vikings-win-ghsa-state-championship-macon-school-photographer/#comments Mon, 16 May 2011 15:47:18 +0000 abphotos http://abphotos.com/wordpress/?p=1819 FPD won the GHSA girls soccer state championship over Paideia. The 3-2 home victory gave FPD their first GHSA state championship in any sport.
FPD built a 2-0 lead in the match on a pair of goals from senior striker Rebecca Miller. Junior Melissa Hash assisted both goals.
The Vikings defense had only allowed 1 goal to a GHSA team this season and the lead was an important one.
Paideia would answer with 2 consecutive goals during a 10-minute stretch to tie the game at 2-2. Sophomore Atalia Ramirez one touched a Paideia defelection into the upper corner of the goal with less than 3 minutes left to put FPD up 3-2.
The left-footed shot from 25 yards out was one of the true highlights of the 2011 season. FPD held the lead for the final few minutes and won the match 3-2. FPD was undefeated in GHSA play and finished with a record of 21-1.
The total goals allowed this season (5) sets a school record. The girls also set a record with 140 goals scored.

John Rhyne scores his 1000th point for Mount de Sales Academy http://abphotos.com/wordpress/2010/01/29/john-rhyne-scores-his-1000th-point-for-mount-de-sales-academy/ http://abphotos.com/wordpress/2010/01/29/john-rhyne-scores-his-1000th-point-for-mount-de-sales-academy/#comments Fri, 29 Jan 2010 11:45:51 +0000 abphotos http://abphotos.com/wordpress/?p=1454 Last night John Rhyne, a senior at  Mount de Sales Academy here in Macon, scored his career 1000 point during the game against First Presbyterian Day school.  Entering the game John just needed 15 points, and got the 15th point in the 3rd quarter.  John had twelve points and was fouled as he was shooting the ball and made the basket and then the free throw was his 1000 point.  The game was stopped to give him the ball because he did not know that was his 1000th career point for Mount de Sales.

Date night with Chris http://abphotos.com/wordpress/2009/01/26/date-night-with-chris/ http://abphotos.com/wordpress/2009/01/26/date-night-with-chris/#comments Mon, 26 Jan 2009 12:05:05 +0000 abphotos http://abphotos.com/wordpress/?p=688 I asked Chris out for a date this past Sunday. (Even though we have been married 23 years) I wanted to do something that we have not done yet so I surprised her by taking her to  the Cox Capitol Theater downtown Macon. They were doing dinner movie night and it was fun. We had dinner around 5:30. Not a big menu but big enough where you could make up your mind easy. The movie started at 6pm and it was Black Beauty. The film was very good and it was about Black Beauty’s life from birth until he retired.

Just to pass on some more information if you are a Gone with the Wind fan they are having a dinner movie night this coming Saturday January 31st with Gone with the Wind. Here is a link for more information:

This week I will be shooting some basketball at FPD and making a trip to Monroe Academy. Last week was Spirit Week at FPD and we now have images online at www.abphotos.com

Thanks for reading and hope to see you soon!
