There were 16 football players and five band members honored Friday during Senior Night at Lake Havasu High School’s Lee Barnes Stadium. Each senior made a final ceremonious walk accompanied by family and friends throughout the night, with football players at the beginning of the game and the band members at half-time.

As the football players made their last walk onto the LHHS field, a recording of each player was piped into the field’s sound system. The recordings were the senior’s final words of appreciation to moms, dads, step-parents, coaches and others who’ve mentored, nurtured or inspired their successes thus far. At half-time, each senior band member had their moment when the announcer read their own final words as they were escorted in front of the stadium’s grand stands.
