The spring semester was cut short due to the COVID-19 pandemic, bringing an unexpected and unceremonious end to the careers of student-athletes across the nation. Though the season was brought to an unexpected early close, that does not take away from the accomplishments of St. Bonaventure's senior student-athletes.
As part of what would have been the final day of the regular season (May 3, 2020), we honor our softball graduating seniors.
