Vote! Decide this week's Marion County Athlete of the Week with 10 nominees to choose from
Spring break didn't stop the action for several Marion County sports teams. Early in the week track and field meets outside of the county. Later in the week softball and baseball took center stage.
The absence of action left us with a shorter field but plenty of big games. Have fun choosing Marion County's next athlete of the week.
Vote once per hour for your favorite athlete. Share the poll on social media so friends and family can get in on the action. Voting will close Thursday at 2 p.m. Results post Friday morning.
