World School Games

Today was the first day of the World School Games being hosted in Cleveland, OH.  This is the first year for the event where high school age athletes from around the world come and compete against others in their age group.  It was interesting to see the local talent and the talent outside of the US.  I photographed tennis, swimming, and basketball.  This is going all weekend and being hosted at Gilmour Academy.
