Vote for the Mississippi Coast all-sports Athlete of the Week for Feb. 2

It’s time to vote on a new athlete of the week.

As always, you can nominate any athlete for an upcoming poll by sending their name, sport and stats from the seven days immediately preceding the day of the next poll to sports@sunherald.com.

This week our nominees feature players from Bay High, Pass Christian, Picayune, Poplarville, St. Martin and St. Patrick.

This is not a scientific poll, and you can vote as many times as you’d like until voting ends at noon Monday, Feb. 9.

Last week’s winner: Alex Patino, St. Patrick
