Falling Out of Senior Year

With the fall sport seasons coming to an end, senior day/night is a tradition of high school sports. It gives the senior athletes the spotlight for their last home game of the year. Coaches and the community honor all senior athletes that have worked hard and showed their dedication to their sports, coaches, and teammates. Being on a team, means being part of a family. Most of these athletes have been playing together for their four years of high school, therefore, the last home senior game can bring many emotions like sadness and pride. These seniors now question when they’ll meet up and remember their glorious days that they shared with each other throughout their high school years. The Lodi Rampage was sure to attend each senior night to capture these last memories.
