It’s time to hand out end-of-year honors.
Our lists of All-Scholastics will be published soon, but in the meantime, we need your help picking ‘Players of the Year’ in each high school sport, starting here with girls golf. Once we’ve narrowed down the best of the best in each sport, we’ll look back over the entire 2024-25 academic year to crown our Male and Female Athletes of the Year.
Cast your vote for the South Shore Girls Golfer of the Year below. The poll closes Friday, June 27.
Reader votes will make up 20% of the tally, with our four staff reporters (Eric McHugh, Jason Snow, Ryan Vermette and Chris McDaniel) making up the rest of the vote.
Note: Only one athlete nominated per school.
