There were 103 players out for the first day of football practice at Junction City High School. Coach Randall Zimmerman called it a really good first day. "You could tell the kids that were around with us all summer long and lifted and ran, and are in good shape. Zimmerman expects 10-15 more kids to come out for football.
The Blue Jays are practicing for a few days at the old high school campus until the facilities are opened at the new JCHS. The plan is to make the move Aug. 25th.
