It's time to cast your vote for the Lansing State Journal's girls high school athlete of the week for May 4-9! We've got three standout candidates from Dansville, St. Johns, and Williamston, each delivering jaw-dropping performances that deserve your recognition.

First up is a defensive powerhouse from Williamston. This center back was a rock for the Redwings, helping secure a crucial CAAC Red win over a tough opponent and a hard-fought draw with Grand Ledge. Not only did she anchor the defense, but she also found the back of the net twice in the victory and scored the lone goal in the tie—proving she's a threat at both ends of the field.

Next, we have a two-way star from Dansville who dominated the Portland Invitational on May 9. She racked up 10 hits across wins over Portland, Okemos, and Portland St. Patrick, including a three-run homer and five RBI against Portland. But that's not all—she also tossed a no-hitter with 16 strikeouts against St. Patrick and added 19 strikeouts in a complete-game win during a doubleheader sweep of Saranac. Talk about a week to remember!

Finally, a junior from St. Johns put on a power display that would make any slugger proud. Over the week, she smashed six home runs and three doubles, including a two-run homer and a grand slam in the same inning against a rival on May 5. She followed that up with another grand slam and a three-run homer in back-to-back innings against Lansing Catholic on May 7. That's the kind of hot streak that turns heads and wins games.

Voting is open until noon on Wednesday, May 13, and the winner will be featured in the LSJ. If the poll doesn't appear, try refreshing your browser or switching to desktop mode on your mobile device.
