#behindthelens #alwayssearching #grinding

Wanted to thank you for the opportunity to follow New Pal Football the entire season with capping off a great journey at Lucas Oil for the State Championship.

Watching a team “behind the lens” win the State Championship at the 4A level and then proceed to complete the same task at the 5A level is incredible. New Pal has a great tradition and community.

The journey was sharing incredible highlights of the players throughout the year. I wanted to take this opportunity to thanks those behind the scenes: fans, student section, cheerleaders, managers, coaches, administration, media (radio, videographers, photographers), training staff. I was not able to capture everyone, but wanted to give a mention.

My hope is that you have memories via videos and interviews that will stay with you. Still several more videos to put out.
