INDIANAPOLIS (WISH) — Last Saturday, WISH-TV’s News 8 at 10 p.m. and 11 p.m. featured highlights from some of the best high school basketball games around central Indiana.

Many teams in the area played for regional championships, as highlighted on WISH-TV. You can watch those highlights by clicking here.

Get your votes in by 3 p.m. Friday for the top student-athlete performance from last week. You can vote here, or by using the poll at the bottom of this article.

This week, four student-athletes from central Indiana are up for the award, nominated by members of the News 8 Sports team.

The majority of the nominated athletes played in games that were covered on WISH-TV, but central Indiana athletes with outstanding performances outside of those games can also be considered.
