Kaden fakes to Esteban at the mesh point while Paul Varela cuts hard in anticipation of the handoff. The iconic water towers loom in the background on a smokey early Fall afternoon. Photos by KTH/KJ425

Hardly an uncommon site as some dude interviews a Limar (sophomore Jayshon Limar) Tuesday. Photos by KTH/KJ425
Kaden’s pictures all have that hardhat ethos. Maybe its the wife beater and the mullet I don’t know. (Just kidding Kaden I think these photos look great or I wouldnt have edited and published them - Kev). Photos by KTH/KJ425
That guy look familiar? A little smaller maybe? That’s freshman WR Jayden Carter — his brother Drew went All State for the Vikings last year before heading to EWU on scholarship — running routes as a different Jayden looks on while giving an interview. Also cool that both varsity QBs hang around after practice to throw to young Mr. Carter. Photos by KTH/KJ425
