The images are featured in Wilson’s book of the same title. She spent 11 years traveling to small towns across the state, using a 35 or 85 mm lens to capture the spirit of the sport. Admission is $8 for adults, $6 for seniors, $4 for students, and free for museum members and children under 12. The museum is on the Southern Methodist University campus, 5900 Bishop.
