It’s time to vote for the Mississippi Coast boys Athlete of the Week for December 18

We head into the holidays with district schedules heating up in winter sports. Athletes across the Coast are turning in big performances, and we’ll highlight several from the boys side here.

Nominees this week are from St. Stanislaus, Moss Point, St. Patrick, Hancock and Pass Christian.

This is not a scientific poll, and you can vote as many times as you’d like until voting ends at 5 p.m. on Christmas Day, at sunherald.com.
