Salute to Seniors Returns This June and July


Salute To Seniors is a medium for "senior farewells". With so many seniors leaving the high school ranks we wanted to give everyone a chance to salute them one more time. As well as to invite those seniors to tell their stories from the past four years. We will begin posting responses after the NJSIAA Meet of Champions and continue through July.

*We will be accepting submissions through July 10th*

There are a few ways you can submit a senior farewell..

  • Answer the questions below in Q&A format.
  • Create your own farewell or utilize the questions in a written format.
  • A short video to say 'thank you' to the people who have impacted you the most. 

Email your responses along with some pictures (with photographer names and permissible use) to rkellert@milesplit.com. Please title the email Salute to Seniors: (name). Pictures preferably linked from MileSplit or ones that we have permission to use from the photographer.

If you are a New Jersey high school senior cross county / track and field athlete feel free to participate. If there is a question you don't want to answer then don't sweat it and just answer what you'd like. Remember to keep answers appropriate for publishing.
