The Daily Telegram has launched its Player of the Week poll for the opening round of the high school football playoffs. Readers are invited to vote for the standout performer from the first weekend of postseason action.
The feature, written by Quinn Richards, was published on November 2, 2026, and highlights the top individual performances from the initial playoff games. The newspaper's sports staff compiled a list of nominees based on statistical output and game impact.
Voting remains open for a limited period, allowing fans, coaches, and players to recognize the athlete who made the biggest difference in round one. The winner will be announced in a follow-up article later this week.
