The Deseret News’ commitment to covering high school sports through the years has always been about promoting great kids doing great things athletically. This spring, COVID-19 is preventing us from doing that — which extends to the postseason as well as there won’t be an all-state softball team.

Those all-state teams would’ve inevitably featured numerous seniors who ended their careers with a bang this spring. Because it’s impossible to know which of those seniors would’ve excelled the most with a full season on the mound or in the batters box, the Deseret News is excited to honor all 397 seniors whose final season was cut short by a pandemic.
