From left are Alison Koelper, Shawnee freshman; Lindsey Kinkelaar, Dodge City junior; Cassie Golden, Overland Park freshman; and Jenny Jaimes, Overland Park sophomore. The marching band practiced Wednesday in 100-degree weather. Forecasters predict temperatures to top off in the 80s for Saturday's season football opener at Memorial Stadium.
