Last Friday, West York ended its 10-3 season with a loss that cut short the team’s hopes of playing the district championship final.
But the Friday before that? Victory.
I shot the game for the next day’s sports section, but I also shot outside the game for a monthly gallery feature that ran in Tuesday’s living section. Here are a few frames, which I did convert to black-and-white for this blog post. You can view all the photos, and read the brief, as they were published.
