Athletes Get Their Moment in the Spotlight

Erie, Pennsylvania, USA,Tuesday, April 21, 2026

The Erie Times‑News team, in partnership with Seaway Window and AHN Sports Medicine, is launching a fresh way to celebrate high‑school athletes in District 10.

  • When?
    Starting now and running through early June, the site will open a poll every Monday at 5 p.m. for “Athlete of the Week.”

  • Categories
    Separate polls exist for male and female athletes.

  • Voting window
    Voters may cast ballots online until the following Wednesday at 5 p.m., unless a change is announced.

  • Nomination process
    Fans who wish to put someone on the ballot must email:

[email protected]

The message should include the player’s name, school, sport, and a brief explanation of why that athlete deserves recognition for a single week’s performance.
General achievements or season totals are not accepted; the focus must be on a recent accomplishment.

  • Award rules
    Once an athlete is chosen, they can no longer appear on future polls for the rest of the season.
    This rule keeps the award fresh and gives more players a chance to shine.
