We apologize for missing the fan vote last week. We had family and work engagements that didn’t allow much time to focus on researching and writing. We’re back now for Week 7 and have a new crop of players to feature. These players were big parts of their team’s win, and should be celebrated for their accomplishments.
As always, voting will end at noon on Friday. Please like and share to get the fan vote out there! Please use the poll at the bottom of this article to vote for your choice for Week 7 Southern Indiana Football Player of the Week.

my Grandson Brody Lester deserves to win. he has played hard even on a messed up ankle. He never gives up. He is hearing inpared and doesn’t like wearing his hearing aides so he can read lips and hand signs. I maybe bias but he is the best high school quarter back I have ever seen. so I pray people vote and colleges look at him for a possible scholarship. He makes good grades and all around hardworking good kid.
