Welcome back to Athlete of the Week voting at The Palm Beach Post!
Congrats to last week’s winner, Mikey Riaboukha of Seminole Ridge baseball. The junior has put together a hot start to the season with a .588 batting average, including a a 3-for-4 performance against Palm Beach Gardens.
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 boys athletes up for nominations in this week’s poll — and then cast your vote for boys 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.
