The Ball State Daily News will use this program to honor athletes who had an impressive week or a breakout performance. Candidates will be chosen and the community can cast their votes.
Candidates will be announced every Monday with the voting closing on the following Tuesday at 5 p.m. The winner will be announced that evening. If you believe a certain student-athlete should be a candidate, email the Daily News sports editor Zach Carter at zachary.carter@bsu.edu or associate sports editor David Moore at david.moore@bsu.edu.
The Ball State Daily News is partnered with the Muncie Sports Commission for this program. This will help determine nominees for the end of the year award show next spring.
