High School Basketball

Last chance: Vote for Kentucky.com’s Girls’ Basketball Player of the Week (Feb. 16-22, 2020)

Each week, we highlight some of the best high school individual performances in Kentucky for the Kentucky.com Girls’ Basketball Player of the Week. They were selected by digital sports writer Jared Peck (@HLpreps) via stats uploaded to KHSAA.org by midnight each Sunday.

Voting ends at noon Friday.

Here are this week’s nominees presented in alphabetical order. Vote for your favorite.

Miss someone? If you’d like to nominate a player’s performance for future weeks, or believe a deserving nominee is missing from this week’s poll, email Jared Peck at jpeck@herald-leader.com. Remember, if your team doesn’t regularly report stats to the KHSAA, we can’t find your favorite player.
