MaxPreps/JJHuddle Ohio HS Teams of the Week

A day with Robert Bobroczkyi
MaxPreps host Chris Stonebraker headed out to Ohio for the latest on arguably the most intriguing prospect in high school basketball.

You nominate, we decide...who had Ohio's best team performance last week?
 
MaxPreps and JJHuddle are proud to announce that they will again sponsor a team of the week during the 2017-18 school year.

How does it work?

Each week during the season (regular and post), there will be a fan-generated contest to nominate weekly winners. Each winning team (one boys and one girls) will receive awards (bracelets and certificates). Football, girls and boys soccer, boys and girls golf, field hockey, girls tennis, boys and girls cross country and volleyball teams are eligible for the award in the fall.
