East High Football
As you may or may not know, the Wichita Eagle has basically quit covering high school athletics. However, we have our intrepid reporter on the scene (or by his radio) in the person of Jake Jacobs. Jake’s game accounts are a bit short on description, but they get to the heart of the matter. So hold on – here come East’s 2022 scores.
