With fall sports heading toward the end of the regular season, the senior appreciation ceremonies are piling up like the leaves in the yard and the unopened Halloween candy next to the front door.
Thankfully, high school sports fans across Massachusetts are again in for a treat as the student photojournalists affiliated with the Globe have been able to capture many of the moments.
This week’s photo gallery has more than 80 pictures from more than 30 high school students. Befitting the season, their pictures are scary good.
The Globe’s unique (and free) photojournalism program is open to any high school student in the state and is still accepting new photographers. The first step: Simply sign up here.
