It’s time to vote for our final athlete of the week in the High Desert for the 2025-26 school year.
Three athletes, all from the same school, are in the running for the Joe Orthodontics High School Athlete of the Week.
Each week throughout the 2025-26 school year, the Daily Press recognized one standout student-athlete from the High Desert as Athlete of the Week.
Through nominations submitted by coaches, as well as our own research, those selected were placed on a ballot every week. The nominations were limited to only varsity athletes.
You can vote for your favorite high school athletes as often as you’d like. The poll closes at 11:59 p.m. on Wednesday night.
Here are the choices for this week, based on performances from June 1 to 6.

Nominations must be received for consideration by Sunday morning following that week’s games. Anyone can nominate an Athlete of the Week for every varsity sport.
Be sure to nominate local athletes next season through email to sports reporter Jose Quintero at JQuintero@VVDailyPress.com. Feel free to also reach out to him on X, formerly known as Twitter, at @J0seQuintero, or on Instagram at @760Varsity. Please include a player’s statistics and a photo if possible.
