Please do not email your votes; they will not count. Nominations and votes are not the same things.

Athletes are on this week's ballot based on information made available to The Dispatch, and nominations made over the past week.

Once athletes win during the regular season, they're not eligible to be back on the ballot until the postseason. If athletes haven't won in the regular season, they can be nominated more than once.

Want to make sure your team's game information and statistics get to the right people? Email that information to sports@dispatch.com.

The Dispatch staff reserves the right to remove ballots or athletes from the ballot where voting irregularities have occurred.
