Welcome to the Southern California News Group’s Girls Athlete of the Week poll.

Throughout the high school sports year, SCNG will provide a list of candidates — selected by our 11 newspapers in Orange County, Los Angeles County, Riverside County and San Bernardino County — who stood out over the previous week and allow you, the reader, to vote for the overall winner.

This week, we consider performances from Aug. 21-26.

The poll closes at 11 p.m. Thursday.

Vote as many times as you’d like until then without using bots or any other artificial methods of voting.

The weekly winner will be announced each Friday morning online.
