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.

The state's leading scorer this season, Ty Horky, caught our eye. He was nominated by @nealzach88 on Twitter.

The Manchester High School senior scored 58 points in a game this year, and led the Flying Dutchmen to an OT win to advance to the district final. Then his season was paused - and canceled. Ty is the school's all-time leading scorer.

Ty, 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.
