Ok, I hesitated doing this, because of course hardly any of you know her. But she'll kill me if I don't use every network at my fingertips to get the word out.

If you don't mind, go here and vote for my daughter. She's a sophomore at Wheaton Warrenville South High School (Chicago suburbs) and she was nominated for Athlete of the Week. She threw two shutouts last week in two wins for her high school softball team. Voting closes at 6:00pm today!

Edit: I just realized of course you don't know her name. She's Katey (listed as Katie) Pierce, so vote for her, not the other nominees. :D

Done. Hope she wins.

Here's a related story.

My youngest daughter's history teacher had a daughter up for VB player of the week. He had all the kids in all of his classes take out their phones and vote for his daughter for 2 straight days. His daughter won that week. We saw him the next week and brought this up to him. His response, "I was hoping that wouldn't get out."

If you can't shamelessly use your high school students as a phone bank what's the point in teaching

This was always a lot of fun as an athlete growing up in the Chicagoland suburbs. I remember our school getting behind most people when they were up for the award. Congrats to your daughter, and go Tigers:)
