The #12 DePaul Prep Rams (12-3, 6-0) defeated the St. Francis de Sales Pioneers (1-17, 0-7) 87-34 this evening (Jan. 8, 2019) at DePaul’s Tom Winiecki Gym. I haven’t seen a win by so much in my memory. I don’t really know what to write about the game. Had my team been on the receiving end of a 50 point defeat I would not be happy about it. But it didn’t seem to me that the Rams were trying to rub it in. It seemed like they just really wanted to play and were not thinking much about the score. The starters didn’t want to come out of the game. They just wanted to play.
The Rams will have their chance on Saturday when Nick Irvin’s Morgan Park Mustangs enter the Tom Winiecki Gym for the marque game of the Steve Pappas Shootout. Should be a big crowd and a chance for the Rams to prove themselves against top competition.
As for the photos, I used the auto ISO seething for a game just to see how it would work. The ISO just as high as 12,800. Those photos came out very grainy. I set it at 6400 in the last game and it was still pretty grainy even on a phone screen. So I dropped the ISO to 4000 to see how that would look. I had of boost the exposure on all the shots but they were not grainy. The highlights might blown out a little but not too grainy. I guess one must just pick one’s poison.
Hope you like the photos.
