GRAND ISLAND, Neb. — The newest Stretch Across Nebraska winner comes from Central Nebraska.

Chelsey Liess submitted her photo, titled Friday Night Lights, of the Heartland Lutheran football team playing against Brady. She included the caption, “High school football is a great way to stay active!”

By winning the contest, Liess was able to select a school to receive a $500 donation. As the principal at Heartland Lutheran in Grand Island, she had an easy choice.

“Largely, our budget is based on donors,” Liess said. “It’s nice to get these little bonuses every once in awhile to do something extra.”
