Troopers play softball for Autism (freelance assignment)

The 9th Annual East Coast Regional Women's State Police Charity Softball Tournament was held at Patriot Park in Spotsylvania on Sunday.  More than 250 female troopers from nine states battled it out on the softball fields to help raise money and awareness for autistic children and their families.

Special guests included Virginia Governor Bob McDonnell and Virginia Secretary of Public Saftey Maria Graff Decker. 

Below are additional images I captured of the event.
