Hey there, Shreveport! We’re just a week into the brand-new football season, and excitement is already buzzing in the air. Local high school athletes have made quite a splash, highlighting the immense talent we have in our area. And guess what? You get to have a say in who stands out as the Football Player of the Week!
Twelve athletes have been selected as nominees for the inaugural Shreveport Times Football Player of the Week 1 ballot for 2024. These players have turned heads with their skills on the field, and now it’s time for you to show your support. Fans can visit shreveporttimes.com to vote for their favorite player until Thursday evening. Let’s take a quick look at the standout nominees:
These young athletes were either chosen based on their impressive performances in the first week or because their coaches saw something special in them. Either way, they are ready to shine!
Now, you might be wondering, “What do they get if they win?” The lucky player who earns the title of Player of the Week will take home a stylish duffle bag and a meal card sponsored by our friendly neighborhood Raising Cane’s Chicken Fingers, the Shreveport-Bossier Sports Commission, and Cosse and Silmon Orthodontics. Not too shabby, right?
This selection process is not just a one-time event. Oh no! The Football High School Athlete of the Week recognition will run throughout the Louisiana football season, celebrating the youthful talent we have here. Coaches and school admins are encouraged to submit their nominees, so keep those submissions coming!
As we dive into the heart of the season, let’s not forget that just recently, Mateo Guerrero from Bossier was voted as the Preseason Fan’s Choice Football Player of the Year. What a title to carry! This showcases the competitive spirit and rising talent in our local football scene. Could one of our Week 1 nominees challenge him for top honors as the season progresses? We can’t wait to see how this unfolds!
So, Shreveport, are you ready to cheer on your favorite players? Voting is open now until Thursday evening, so rally your support and cast your vote at shreveporttimes.com. Remember, your vote can make a difference in these young athletes’ lives!
As we continue to enjoy this wonderful football season, let’s all come together to appreciate the hard work and dedication of these athletes. Here’s to another thrilling week of football in Shreveport-Bossier!
