Welcome back to Athlete of the Week voting at The Palm Beach Post!
Congrats to last week’s winner, Antonio Herrera of Park Vista baseball. The junior went 4-for-4 at the plate with two runs scored and four RBIs in an 11-0 win over Palm Beach Central.
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.
