Following a championship weekend, many cross-country runners, a few teams, and one swimmer are being considered for the WyoPreps Athlete of the Week award.

As promised, fans can vote to help us decide the winner. Your vote is counted as part of the overall deliberation for each week's Athlete of the Week honors. Winning the poll doesn't guarantee a selection.

WyoPreps will also consider various factors in its weekly decision such as the level of competition, the type of competition, the size of the competition field, the importance of the competition, and more. The poll is simply one piece of a big puzzle, and we value your opinion.

We have narrowed the pool of candidates to finalists, after receiving nominations and considering the best performances for this week's awards. These nominees performed well during competitions between Oct. 16, 2023, and Oct. 21, 2023.

Cast your vote now.

The official winners are announced each Wednesday. WyoPreps will be featuring one female and one male student-athlete throughout the year thanks to our partners at Blue Cross/Blue Shield of Wyoming.
