#SocialStudies v13.0
May 24, 2012
After a brief hiatus, class is back in session. Let the #SocialStudies commence.
1.This is nearly unbelievable

2. Time Lapse-tastic

Six gargantuan events, four days. Here’s hoping the facility folks are somewhere with their feet up after that stretch. I’m sure a few athletic directors out there feel this way during the spring season, too. This clip shows all the action, hyper-speed.
3. Is he in pain?
Umpires, feel free to weigh in here. Points for style, but I think his mechanics may be slightly off ...
4. Gotta feel for this guy

Trying for a trick shot or a similarly incredible feat?
Get some video, and let us show it off here on #SocialStudies.
