Winter sports are over, so we thought we’d try something different before we pivot to spring sports coverage.
We are going to honor all this winter’s Girls Athlete of the Week winners by having them compete in one final poll to determine who is the top Girls Athlete of the Winter. The award is presented by Faber Builders.
Your vote determines which Section V player deserves the honor. The players' credentials are listed above the poll — which will be live until 8 p.m. Thursday. The winner will be announced on our Instagram page Friday morning.
Let's look at Athletes of the Week for one final time. And if the poll at the bottom of the page doesn't load, please click here.
