Fall 2026 Through My Lens: Twinsburg Tigers Sports

Tiger Stadium feels like the right place to start looking back at the fall. I photographed its reopening in August, and over the next few months I kept coming back for Friday night football, soccer matches, senior nights, and Homecoming. Some of my favorite moments happened between plays, when I could turn my camera toward the band, the cheerleaders, or the student section.

My fall coverage started with boys soccer scrimmages on August 5 and ended at the boys soccer regional final on November 8. In between, I photographed games, matches, and school events across 38 dates, with 69 galleries from the season. That includes 12 football galleries, 19 for boys soccer, 17 for girls soccer, 10 for volleyball, and 11 for special events. When I photographed multiple levels on the same day, each match with its own gallery counted separately.

Friday Nights at Tiger Stadium

25 frames from the Twinsburg football season.

My football coverage started with two August scrimmages and ran through the October 23 game against Mayfield. The first regular-season game I photographed was against Kent Roosevelt.

Homecoming against Barberton was one of those nights when I had my camera out well before kickoff. I photographed the parade and Homecoming court, then turned my attention to the game. Two weeks later, at the Brecksville–Broadview Heights game, I photographed senior night for football, marching band, and cheerleading.

When I look back through the football galleries, I like pairing a tight action shot with a wide frame that takes in the stadium. The first lets you see the play unfold. The second brings back what it felt like to be there on a Friday night.

Boys Soccer | A District Title and a Regional Final

25 frames from the Twinsburg boys soccer season.

I photographed the boys from the first August scrimmages through the regional final on November 8. The district title against Walsh Jesuit was a highlight, and putting together the collage gave me a chance to revisit the matches that led up to it.

My favorite frame is the last team photo from the playoff run. After spending so much of the season following the ball and looking for the next play, I like ending with a frame where I can take a moment to look at everyone together.

Girls Soccer | From August to the District Final

The girls soccer collage takes me back through a season that included JV and varsity matches, youth night, senior night, and a playoff run that ended against North Royalton in the district final.

The photo I keep coming back to is the team picture at the end of that run. Looking at it now, I think about how many different nights went into making that collage. That last frame is the one I’d pick to close out the season.

Volleyball | A Run to the District Final

25 frames from the Twinsburg volleyball season.

I photographed freshman, JV, and varsity volleyball this fall, along with senior night and the varsity district final against Lakewood. The collage brings together some of my favorite moments from the gym, from the action at the net to the reactions between points.

Of all those frames, the final team photo after the playoff match is my favorite. So much of photographing volleyball is about catching a split second. I’m glad I also had a chance at the end to step back and get the whole team in one frame.

Senior Nights, Homecoming, and Special Events

Eleven of my fall galleries came from the occasions around the games. I photographed the reopening of Tiger Stadium in August, youth nights for both soccer teams in September, and the Homecoming court, parade, and Twinsburg Athletic Boosters Hall of Fame induction on October 2.

Senior nights gave me a chance to photograph students and their families together. I covered the shared recognition for cross country, golf, and tennis, along with senior nights for boys soccer, girls soccer, and volleyball. The last one I photographed brought football, marching band, and cheerleading together at Tiger Stadium.

Beyond the Game | Other Albums

Some of my favorite fall photos came from the sidelines, the stands, and halftime. At the bottom of my sports index, I’ve grouped those photos into albums for the marching band, cheerleaders, student section, football ball boys, and coaches. If you’re looking for someone in one of those groups, you can browse photos from several nights in one place.

The photos are still in their original event galleries, and the collections update as I add new photos. There’s also a Sports Photographers album with pictures I’ve taken of other photographers on the sidelines, and a T.J. Powell Taking Sports Photos album for the times someone pointed a camera my way.
