Who was the best girls athlete on the MS Coast for the week of December 11? Vote now
Basketball and soccer stars are back for another round of our girls athlete of the week poll, as is a state-winning cheer team.
Through at least the end of the calendar year, the Sun Herald will be running a separate Athlete of the Week poll to highlight the many girls dominating their sports around the region.
Athletes this week are from West Harrison, Biloxi, Harrison Central, St. Patrick and Vancleave.
This is not a scientific poll, and you can vote as many times as you’d like until voting ends at noon Monday, Dec. 18, at sunherald.com.
If you would like to nominate a candidate for next week’s poll, send in game or match stats to swatkins@sunherald.com. Stats must be from an event that occurs this week.
Get to know the nominees here:
- Larissa Hubbard, Harrison Central basketball: Hubbard scored 20 points and grabbed 11 rebounds in a win over Gulfport.
- Sydnei Barber, West Harrison basketball: Barber had 19 points, six rebounds and five steals in a win over St. Patrick and then 19 points, five rebounds and three steals in a win against Picayune.
