~ Football Rivalries ~

The biggest game of the year is coming up this Friday night. It's between Murrieta Valley High School and cross-town rival Vista Murrieta High School. Vista is a new school, only being five years old, however their football team has established itself as a force to be reckoned with. The first year the two teams met, Murrieta Valley beat Vista Murrieta, however in the four years since, Vista has been the victor.

This year I decided to add a little fun to the pre-game hype by doing a photo shoot with the quarterbacks and running backs from each team. Following is the result of that day. The boys were great and got along well during the shoot. When it was over, the Murrieta Valley players even gave the Vista Murrieta quarterback a ride to practice which pretty much negates the idea that the players hate each other.
