Here are the top prep performers from the week of June 1-6 in Manitowoc and Sheboygan counties.

There won’t be a set number of players chosen in each sport in a given week, just including performances which stood out and deserve recognition.

This means there might be more or less than the week previous.

Track and field state though won’t be included as it’ll be covered in the state track recap.

Another criteria is to limit selections to one player per team, per sport.

To submit nominations, email Tom Dombeck at tdombeck@htrnews.com by Sunday evening.
