The Dayton Daily News is inviting readers to nominate their favorite high school athletes for the Athlete of the Week title, presented by the Orthopaedic Institute of Dayton. The contest runs throughout the season, with nominations and votes occurring weekly. To be eligible, nominees must be current high school student-athletes within the Dayton Daily News, Journal-News and Springfield News-Sun coverage area.
They can be nominated by coaches, athletic directors, school administrators, and fans, providing their full name, school, sport, grade level, key statistics, accomplishments, and a photo. Nominations are open throughout the season and are evaluated based on performance, not guaranteeing a spot on the ballot. Finalists are chosen by the newspaper's sports staff, and voting opens at noon on Mondays, continuing until Wednesday.
Winners are announced on Fridays, with athletes potentially featured in stories, photos, and social media posts. Athletes are only allowed to win once per season to promote fairness across sports and schools. Violations of school or team conduct policies may lead to disqualification.
