Dear subscribers,

Close to 200 University of Michigan students gathered Wednesday night on the steps of the Michigan Union to protest racially charged incidents on campus in the past week. Michigan football's freshman receiver Donovan Peoples-Jones will be relied upon to fill the void left by the injured Tarik Black. Wednesday afternoon, the University of Michigan announced a $50 million donation from notable alum Stephen Ross to the Ross School of Business. Finally, we have a reflection on the "Twin Peaks" revival, and a visual statement from the sidelines of a women's soccer game.

All the best,
The Michigan Daily

On September 14 and 17, I photographed two women’s soccer games. It was an incredible feeling to be shooting sports again. I started the fall 2016 semester shooting women’s soccer, and it felt like I was coming full circle for my last year at the Daily. One of my favorite things about covering sports isn't necessarily the peak actions themselves, but rather the intimate moments in between plays. Here are some of my favorite frames from the past week.
