The COVID-19 outbreak forced the sudden cancelation of the NCAA winter and spring sports seasons. In the weeks following, the Aurora University athletic department highlighted senior student-athletes. We began with the seniors from the spring who had their seasons cut short and now begin to recognize the seniors from the winter and fall sports who completed their time at AU.
