With the playoff announcement just hours away, we here at Local Sports Journal can’t tell you how much fun we have had covering our area’s football teams this season.
Area student athletes have risen and done what they were expected of. They showed up week in and week out and fans could not be happier. Win or lose, we show up to watch these games because the kids on the field deserve our support.
So in lieu of this up coming playoff season, lets take a look at a photo gallery of some of the area teams that fought for a win this past Friday night.
