Last week Carter Marracco was out Florida Power & Light Athlete of the Week after helping the Big Green advance to their first Final 4 since 2014. This week the focus shifts to the winter season and the hardwood.
Who’ll join Choctaw’s Marracco, Tamen Zabetakis and Jordan Figueroa, Walton’s Kaden Fuentes and Whitton West, Baker’s Wyatt Straight, Fort Walton Beach’s Sawyer Downs and Diandre Mayes, Niceville’s Teray Geiger and Jakobe Gilyard, Crestview’s Manwell Robinson and Trey Hardman, Freeport’s Emily Doi, and South Walton’s Connor Rooney and Maci Jones as past winners? That’s for you to decide.
The AOTW poll runs through noon Friday, with the winner announced here shortly after the poll closes. Vote now and vote often.
