I voted for One on One.  It clearly conveyed the emotion of the competition.  One player in the process of a drive and the other with the determined look of "You're NOT getting by me!". This image also captures the act of competing--opposition, conflict, struggle, contention--all synonyms for competition.

Carolyn,

Very good observations.  It will be hard to pick a "favorite" from this assignment.  (Right now we have an eight-way tie for "favorite.")
