Zac Robinson can take a hit

In the ten years I’ve been shooting football photos, I have never had a nice shot of a helmet being knocked off of a player. At last week’s Oklahoma State football game Zac Robinson lost his helmet after being hit on a keeper. Oddly enough, fellow staffer Sarah Phipps and I both got nice shots of the play. Robinson was not injured on the play. Here’s the pics:
