Kpreps.com is pleased to officially announce that Lori Wood Habiger has been awarded the Grand Prize for the 2020 Kpreps Friday Night Photo Contest.

Lori’s winning photo captures Mill Valley’s Kendrick Jones hauling in a touchdown pass at the goal line in front of a St. Thomas Aquinas defender. The Jaguars went on to win the state semifinal showdown, 42-7, and would capture their second consecutive Class 5A state championship a week later.

“We continue to be impressed with the quality of photos we receive each season, and, despite the unprecedented season given the pandemic, 2020 was no exception,” Kpreps’ Managing Partner Matt Gilmore said. “Lori submitted fantastic photos all year in documenting Mill Valley’s incredible season, and this photo is one of many that stood out to our staff.”

“Selecting a winning photograph is among our most difficult tasks each season,” said Kpreps’ Managing Partner Andy Wachter. “Photographers across the state continue to impress us with their work and we believe their photos play such an important part in the quality of our coverage.”

Lori wins $500 cash for her 2020 winning photograph.
