Walking across this football field is not easy. Space is at a premium. It is a massive highway full of human machines more finely tuned than you will ever be, and they are sprinting past, mere inches from a collision. They are warming up for some of the biggest moments of their young lives. The voices of football coaches yelling to keep your head on a swivel rattle around the mind.

It is a massive spectacle, with 3,697 people who can run, jump, and throw better than anyone else in the state. Combine the athletes, with an army of volunteers, and hoards of media, gathered to record another chapter in the history of their respective towns, and you have what feels like chaos. It is too big to comprehend.
