🧑‍🤝‍🧑Mascot: "Swathers"

Meet the Swathers, the cool and unique mascot of Hesston High School in Kansas This mascot isn't a person, but it's definitely a powerhouse. The Swathers are named after a type of farm equipment called a swather, which is used to cut and windrow grain and seed crops. This tribute is special because the town of Hesston is home to the AGCO Corporation, a major manufacturer of these machines. When the Hesston High football team takes the field, they're accompanied by a big, red swather mascot that's as intimidating as it is iconic 🏆. It's a symbol of the town's strong agricultural roots and the team's determination to "cut down" the competition. NGL, it's pretty awesome to have a mascot that's so deeply connected to the community's history and industry 🚀
