So many senior athletes in high school and college had their final year cut short. Sportscenter anchor, Scott Van Pelt, started taking submissions on twitter from seniors across the U.S. with the trending hastag #SeniorNight. Scott received 10,000 submissions immediately.

Simply send submissions to my email or twitter: bendarnell@iheartmedia.com or @ESPNBenDarnell
