It's time to Vote for the Georgia Track and Field Performer of the Week!
We have done this once a week all season, but with this being the state meet week, I've increased the number of participants. I'll also be taking the top 3 vote earners and adding them to our final vote for performance of the year.
Here's the lineup for this week's vote:
Melanie Doggett - Landmark - 11.39/22.71 in the 100/200m
Rhimani Duffie - Booker T. Washington - 11.36/23.21/54.50 in the 100/200/400m
Olivia Harris - Buford - 53.22 in the 400m
Oluwatoyin Awoleye - Lithia Springs - 53.78 in the 800m
Morgan Means - Heritage - 2:09 in the 800m
Mary Nesmith - Marietta - 4:46/10:28 in the 1600/3200m
Harriet Blaha - Pace Academy - 4:57/10:54 in the 1600/3200m
Janae' Randall - Alcovy - 47-4 in the Shot Put
Sierra Thornton - Chamblee - 161-10 in the Discus
Janessa Brown - Buford - 20-6.5 in the Long Jump
Valynsia Calhoun - 20-3.75/42.11 in the LJ/300h
Chariyah Gilbert - Westlake - 41-0 in the Triple Jump
Savanna Wade - Eagle's Landing - 5-8 in the High Jump
Marley Derringer - Bremen - 5-8 in the High Jump
Adair Carlin - Galloway - 12-6 in the Pole Vault
Voting Closes on Monday at 5pm!
Note - Performance is only one factor to determine the nominees each week. Place in each meet will be another factor. The bigger the meet the more it's weighed.
Once an Athlete wins, they will no longer be nominated for athlete of the week. We will keep a running tally of each week's winner and then after the season have a final vote for athlete of the year.
