Saturday I shot three high school football games for The Telegraph in Macon since the GHSA state finals were held at the Georgia Dome. The first game was between Savannah Christian and Wilcox County for Division A. This game didn’t look like it would be close at first with Savannah Christian leading for most of the first half. However, the momentum swung very quickly and Wilcox took the lead and held on.

| Addressing the crowd after you win the finals, I imagine its a good feeling. |
 |
| He’s just excited to be here. |
 |
| One of three of these types of shots, at least I won’t need any more until August most likely. |
 |
| The one nice thing about the field turf at the Georgia Dome is that sometimes you can see the pellets pop off the ground when a player hits it. |
 |
| Suddenly occurs to me that I had a number of photos of Savannah Christian players flipping over Wilcox County players. |
 |
| Love the hand trying to block the pass. |
 |
| He almost fumbled the ball as he went in for this touchdown. |
 |
| Reverse facemask. |
 |
| Wish the defender had his hands up, you know, to at least pretend he was trying to make a sack. |
 |
| Love the stack in this one. |
 |
| The motion of the two defenders almost makes it look like it’s a composite with (31) being from the next frame. |
  |
| Misses passes and missed tackles. |
 |
| Fighting for extra yards. |
 |
| Another stiff arm. |
 |
| This was actually a really great catch. He was heavily covered, bobbled the ball behind him, but managed to make the save with one hand while he landed on his back. |
 |
| I like the symmetry of their legs. |
  |
| Left one is fairly standard, but the white guy on the right is the head coach during the final few plays of the game holding hands with one of his assistants. |
 |
| This was right before he made his way into the endzone for a touchdown. |
 |
| Celebrating with fans. |
