The Register is back on the hunt for what readers consider are the areas top athletes. Last month, we nominated six nominees who were the top of their class and now weve picked six more for May.
Our nominees this month include Crest junior Elka Billings, Marmaton Valley junior Bailey Griffith, Iola junior Elysia Kunkler, Humboldt junior Gunner Elder, Yates Center senior Hadley Splechter and Humboldt senior Tucker Hurst.
Last months picks were Yates Center sophomore golfer Easton Reynolds and Yates Center junior softball player Madelynn Collins.
Now its time to pick the best from May.
The poll is currently live and will remain up until Thursday at midnight.
Well announce the winners Saturday in both our Weekender print edition and on our website.
IF YOU HAVE an area athlete that you think should be nominated, feel free to drop us a line at [email protected]. Now that were out of the school year, dont be afraid to nominate an exceptional tee-ball player or a swimmer who might be the next Michael Phelps.
Be sure to include a paragraph or two on what theyve done that makes them worthy of nomination and a picture if you have it.
Also, dont be afraid to share the link to vote on Facebook or Twitter. The more you share, the better chance you have to get your favorite athlete selected.
Earlier in the month, we ran our feature on Yates Centers Reynolds and in this Saturdays paper, well have a story on Collins.
Until then, be sure to hop on our website and cast your vote.
