Each week, The Clarion-Ledger names four high school athletes of the week (boy/girl state athletes and boy/girl metro athletes) and a list of the state’s top performers.
Now, we’re asking for our readers to vote for one player to be named the #MSPreps player of the week.
After the C-L names its athlete of the week and top performers, we’ll compile a list of 10 players (five boys and five girls) and put up a poll for fans to submit their vote.
Voting will start Tuesday and end Thursday at 3 p.m. Once the votes are tallied, the #MSPreps player of the week will be revealed on Friday morning.
Here’s a breakdown of each nominee:
Jacquelle Green, D’Iberville: Senior quarterback passed for 265 yards and four touchdowns and ran for 208 yards and three TDs in a 56-35 win over Picayune.
A.J. Brown, Starkville: Had a career-high 16 catches for 192 yards in a 20-7 win over Oxford.
