f you’ve been to a North athletic event,
you’ve likely seen Alex Neumann there
capturing the action with his camera. Alex,
a senior at North, has been to numerous
sporting events over the years and has taken
thousands of photos. “I take about 1,000
pictures for each event,” he said. Neumann
has accumulated many photos over the
years. “Since I started last year, I just went
over 100,000 pictures.” The winter sports
will soon be heading into the end of their
regular season and into the WIAA playoffs.
Watch for the Lightning, and Alex, as they
make a run in the playoffs. Check on www
