2021 High School Football Regular Season
I had the pleasure of covering many games during the 2021 regular season of High School Football in Central and Western Kansas.
I took my camera to games with the teams of LaCrosse, Victoria, McPherson, Winfield, McPherson, Canton-Galva, Little River, Hays, Dodge City, Hoisington, and Norton.
Below are some of the pictures I took at the games:
