Matt O’Harver Photography

This past weekend I was fortunate enough to cover the class 3A and 4A State Track and Field events in Jefferson City. I was witness to what has to be one of the most impressive individual performances in long distance running I have ever witnessed. With the pressure of carrying her team on her back alone without teammate Brittany Borman this year, Alyssa Allison was instrumental in scoring 40 points in helping the Festus Tigers to a 3rd place finish in Class 3A. If your Athlete took part in the games and is in the Leader coverage area, chances are good I have photos of him or her and they may run in this weeks paper. Congratulations to the Tigers and the other individuals who placed in their events and also to those who were able to qualify for the event. I will be on Vacation before the summer events start up. See you at the games over the summer. And for those contacting me for Senior Portraits we will begin our sessions when I return the week of June 15th.
