Vote: Who is the Big Bend/Panhandle Girls Flag Football Player of the Week (3/18/2024)?
The Florida High School Girls Flag Football season is in full swing and we begin our Player of the Week polls for areas all around the state. Teams have started off the regular season with some great individual performances.
As such, we have 10 athletes nominated this week for the SBLive’s Big Bend/Panhandle high school girls flag football player of the week award from March 11-March 16, and we ask you, the fans, to help decide who should indeed be the top athlete selected. Voting will conclude on Sunday, March 24th at 11:59 p.m. The winner will be announced in next week's poll.
Congratulations to last week’s winner: Kyendra Thomas OF Wakulla.
Editor’s note: Our corresponding poll is intended to be fun, and we do not set limits on how many times a fan can vote during the competition. This poll is specifically for fans to vote on the players that have been nominated and in no way discredits any other player that may not be mentioned in our poll.
Here are the nominees:
Amaya Pablo, Pace: The junior had the hot hand in the Patriots’ 68-0 win over Northview, throwing for 327 yards and nine touchdowns.
