Chelsea Hoopes poses in a grassy, scenic area to capture the perfect senior picture. Hoopes was involved in Brave Cadettes all four years of high school and was honored to be given the position of co-captain her senior year. Hoopes noted, My favorite memory from high school would be going with the dance team to perform at the Boise field my junior year.

Senior Charlie Sessions determinedly shed hunts this spring and is rewarded with a brown 6 point. He found horns like this with a lot of time looking through the glass and a lot of miles.
