Girls lacrosse: Vote in the first lohud Player of the Week poll of the season
The girls lacrosse season launched early this spring for some teams but not all. As of March 31, some had yet to play, while others had played as many as four games.
Normally, The Journal News/lohud Girls Lacrosse Player of the Week poll covers, just as it sounds, one week.
But because a handful of teams began play two weeks ago, this iniital poll will cover the season's first two weeks.
Coaches have nominated six players.
Please read about their accomplishments below, then scroll to the poll to vote.
As is the case with every sports poll, if you can't see the poll, try refreshing the page.
If you don't think your votes are counting, try using a different browser.
There's no limit to the number of times you may vote, nor to the number of players for whom you may vote.
But vote soon. The poll will close at noon on Tuesday.
