Welcome back to Athlete of the Week voting at The Palm Beach Post!
Congratulations to last week’s winner, Peyton Williamson of Suncoast softball. The sophomore tallied three hits, five stolen bases, and four runs scored in a 23-18 slugfest victory over Highlands Christian.
As a reminder, the biggest change this year is that The Post will have two athletes of the week, and thus, two different polls. We will have a boys athlete and a girls athlete named each week. You may vote in both.
The polls will be open until noon each Friday.
Tune in below to hear an introduction of the girls athletes up for nominations in this week’s poll – and then cast your vote for girls athlete of the week.
Have someone you’d like to nominate? Send an email to Alex Peterman with The Palm Beach Post sports at apeterman@gannett.com including the athlete’s name and stats by Sunday at 6 p.m. each week.
