Muskegon Catholic Central football fans packed Ray Cioe Gymnasium Sunday evening to celebrate its ninth football state championship.

The surreal championship feeling filled the air as the Local Sports Journal’s Tim Reilly was present to capture images from the celebration.

The 2013 football season has been one that has been embedded into the memories of area football fans. Check out a few pictures from the celebration.
