Nebraska State High School Football Championship: Class C1 Aurora vs. Ord
Covering the Nebraska State High School Football Championships in Lincoln, Neb. is always a treat. This year we had four teams we covered that played in championship games. One city school (Grand Island) and the other three are area teams (Aurora, Burwell and Ord). Two of these area teams Aurora and Ord matched up in what would be Ord’s first appearance in a state championship football game. These young men give it their all and are a lot of fun to photograph. Good times!
