The end of the game

This photo of buddies consoling a Central High Tiger after the 21-0 loss to the Sikeston Bulldogs sums up how the game went for me.

Here's a gallery of 80 photos from the game.

It's been 40 years since I've shot a Central High School game. I KNOW we didn't have the level of spirit I saw from those kids in the stands Thursday night. I've never seen so much orange and black in one place.

Both teams showed a lot of class in victory and defeat. Sportsmanship is alive in Southeast Missouri.
