To celebrate the seniors’ big night, teammates, friends, and loved ones created posters for the players to showcase while walking across the field. Visual senior William Dhana’s sister Lauren Dhana created a poster to cheer on her brother. The tradition of the senior night walk celebrates their dedication to their sport and is a milestone for the athletes as they transition into a life outside of highschool. (Isabella Johnson)

The Ceremony

Communications senior Sam Cohen relieves her pressure as she runs through a “tunnel” made by teammates after tying the Seminole Ridge game 0-0. During the “tunnel run,” seniors’ names were announced, along with their favorite memories, achievements, and hopes for the future. Cohen is a four-year member of the team. (Isabella Johnson)

Theater senior Grace Trainor hugs her mom, Vicky Trainor, after her announcement and walks past her teammates. Trainor said her favorite memories of being on the team were the rained-out practice days when the team would play Just Dance in the media center as a bonding exercise. (Isabella Johnson)
