We're celebrating athletes whose senior seasons have abruptly ended.

WXYZ Senior Salutes: We are asking for your senior year sports stories for our Brad Galli and Justin Rose to highlight on TV.

Renaissance track and field standout Imani Jackson is heading to Morgan State next fall, but wanted to cap off an incredible high school career. She's been all-city in Detroit, all-state, and a national champion. Her final track and field season was canceled, as was her New Balance national championship run.

Imani, you make us proud. We salute you!

Kudos to ESPN's Scott Van Pelt for leading the way in calling for these stories. Our producer Megan Garagiola thought we could showcase some in metro Detroit to share on our platforms.
