The Mud Fest

Last Saturday I covered Altavista's football semifinal game at Altavista High School. The weather forcast perdicted snow and freezing rain all night Friday and all day Saturday and that's what it did. Just about everything was canceled in the area except this football game. I knew that Altavista's field would be a mud pit since I was there a couple weeks earlier and it wasn't raining but was still a mud pit. At first I wasn't looking forward to standing in ankle deep mud in the 30s with sleet blowing in my face. Then I started dreaming of the muddy football pictures to be had and lets say my dreams came true. Here are some pictures from the day.
