The three seniors honored before the game were Bryce Weymouth, Caden Ferland, and Owen Taylor. All three seniors contributed, as Taylor had a hit and an RBI, as did Caden and even with an injury, Bryce was able to get in. Bryce tore a hamstring and has missed the last nine games and is still not 100%, but he was able to pinch hit and lined a single to right for a hit on Senior Night.
