Seems a bit odd considering the size of the greater NYC area.
That does make it more surprising.
But considering those sports are not popular spectator sports, it's less surprising. Not many people shooting for free since less are interested im the sport. Probably not most pro's first choice for a gig, if they can find a paying gig in another sport.
Some photographers have found a niche in my region shooting cross country for various websites. I say good for them, because last thing I want to do after working until 3 a.m. on a football Friday is to be up, out and shooting a cross country meet at 9 a.m. Saturday morning. (And as far as my newspaper goes, regular-season XC doesn't draw us eyes at all, so we don't even bother covering until postseason).
