WyoPreps is presenting our Athlete of the Week honors in the 2026-27 school year. We spotlight deserving student-athletes based on how they fared in a competition week. We will accept nominations at any point during a competition week, which is Monday through Sunday. Please submit your nominations no later than 6 p.m. on Mondays. We are seeking sponsors of our awards. Business inquiries can be sent to david@wyopreps.com.

WyoPreps looks at each sanctioned high school sport throughout the year.

Criteria For Weekly Nominations

1 - Remember, it's for the whole week (Monday-Saturday), so if an athlete competes more than once, one good game/contest/event might not be enough if that same athlete struggles in another game/contest/event.

2 - This is NOT a feel-good, they work hard award. You have to back it up with specifics from a game(s)/event(s)/contest(s).

3 - We're looking for top-notch performances, and what separates that athlete from the rest of the competition in that one specific week.

4 - Include Stats! Check with a stat-keeper after the game or a coach. Don't just guess. Include stats from all games/events/contests from that 1 specific week. Previous week's stats do NOT help an athlete's case. You don't need those. Season averages do not help.

5 - Include a quote from a head coach. If a coach singles out an athlete because of something he or she did, that only helps a case.

6 - Include a photo from a current game/event/contest. Ask around an athlete's school for help with that.

7 - Nominations can come from anyone: a parent, a coach, a fan, student-athletes, etc.

Nominate a Wyoming student to be the WyoPreps Athlete of the Week using the form below. A nomination does not guarantee receipt of the award.
