Ohio's best individual performances?
You vote, you
decide. MaxPreps is proud to again sponsor the Ohio Athlete of
the Week awards during the 2022-23 school year.
Each week during the season, there will be
a fan-generated contest to tab weekly
winners. Each winner receives a letter and award
patch for their varsity jacket.
How does it
work? Nominees are selected from
statistics submitted on MaxPreps. Coaches who do not have current access may
request their free account here.
Weekly finalists are released on MaxPreps every
Tuesday and voting is conducted in a special poll.
Voting ceases at noon on Mondays. The winners are announced the next day
along with the next week's nominees.
Participants may vote as many
