Every Thursday during the fall, KHS’s varsity football team arrives at Lyons Stadium at 6 a.m. for practice. With great anticipation for the game the next day, the boys spend time going over various plays and final details for their upcoming opponent. Even as mornings grew colder, the boys continued to show up in hopes of pushing through to the state championship. When it comes to their focus, “We work to keep it as normal as possible,” Antonio Phillips, senior, said. “We want to treat it as a regular practice despite it being so early in the day.”
