For many Watauga High School spring senior athletes, the cancelation of their season due to COVID-19 brought an immediate end to their athletic career. Many athletes missed out on their last chance to compete, play with their teammates, senior night celebrations and the annual athletic banquet.
The Watauga High Booster Club and the town of Boone decided to honor these athletes by hanging up each of the 53 athletes’ senior banners on King Street. The banners feature the player’s name, picture and sport over a light blue background
The athletes were heartbroken when they found out their final season was over.
