What should have been a easy game for the UNLV Rebels, turned out be a game where they walked a thin line. UCSB knows when to show up for games, lead by Orlando Johnson. I was able to set up a floor remote to get a different angle of the game, which is cool to see the comparison shots between my long lens and wide. The game eventually ended up with the Runnin’ Rebels winning 84-88 in double overtime. This was unfortunate for me because I still had my long drive back to Los Angeles. Here are a few photos I liked from the day. A general overview of the Thunderdome prior to the game.
