Honoring high school seniors

Johns Creek High School honored its senior athletes and the class of 2020 on what would have been Senior Night.

A metro Atlanta high school is making sure the pandemic does not take all of the big moments away from students this year.

Johns Creek High School honored senior athletes by lighting up their stadium Friday night.

"Tonight actually would have been our senior night," said Logan Faust, head coach of the high school's varsity lacross team.

The girl's lacross team were fresh off a winning season when it was cut short and they were forced off the field by the pandemic.

But Friday, on what would have been a big night, their legacy shined on.

"It's kinda a special way that we as coaches can give back to seniors," Faust said.
