The Greenville News Upstate Girls Athlete of Week: How Voting Works & How to Win

What is The Greenville News Upstate Girls Athlete of Week vote?

The Greenville News Upstate Girls Athlete of Week is run online as a public ballot by The Greenville News, a newspaper whose ballot covers the Upstate region of South Carolina. The ballots is carried by Crowdsignal through poll.fm, and the link on this page points to the latest ballot in the series. The organizer is a regional newspaper, so the nominee list, the schedule and any published result come from the paper rather than from a state athletic body.

Readers who look up this vote by name usually want to know where the ballot lives, which seasons have run and whether anyone can take part. The table below lists the confirmed facts, and the sections that follow each take a separate question.

When have the Upstate girls athlete ballots run?

Confirmed editions for this program are 2023, 2024 and 2025. The series runs as a weekly set of ballots, and the months shown on the poll platform run from November through April. The most recent closed ballot linked from this page shows a total of 310 votes, which gives readers a sense of the scale of a single weekly ballot.

Opening and closing days for each weekly ballot do not appear on the poll pages, so this guide reports the months only. Dates for the next weekly ballot should be confirmed on the live ballot each cycle.

The confirmed years share the same November to April window, so the seasons read as a steady winter and spring series rather than a single event.

The poll is a public vote on poll.fm. A supporter opens the linked poll page, reads the athlete names and the towns printed beside them, chooses a nominee and submits the choice. Because the poll runs on Crowdsignal, the steps follow that platform's standard layout, and the page shows whether the linked ballot is still open or has closed.

The linked address is the latest ballot in the weekly series, so check the poll page before you vote to see whether a newer ballot has opened.

Across South Carolina, the Greenville ballot sits beside six nearby polls in this directory, and reading them together shows how it differs. This vote covers girls, whereas the state's baseball and boys basketball weekly ballots cover boys' sports. The Mr. Football Reader Poll and the defensive award are football ballots, so the set spans several sports rather than a single one.

The Charleston Post and Courier Athlete of the Week ballot is the closest match in format, while the South Carolina boys basketball player of the week poll shows how a boys-only series is set up. Readers can compare the full state list on the South Carolina contest hub.

Because the sibling list mixes athlete-of-the-week series with football and baseball awards, a reader can see how this girls ballot differs in its audience and calendar. The Greenville page keeps its own towns and its own months, which sets it apart from the football and defensive awards in the same set.

How can a supporter help an Upstate nominee on this ballot?

Most supporters start by sharing the poll link with family, friends and local readers who follow The Greenville News. That step is open to everyone who reads the paper. Anything beyond sharing falls under the rules the organizer sets and the platform's terms, and this page prints neither in full, so read both first.
