The Greater Akron-Canton High School Sports Awards, presented by Akron Children’s Hospital, is proud to announce all its fall athlete of the year nominees. The winners will be announced during the live show on June 22 at Akron Civic Theatre. The show, which combines what was previously three separate shows (Akron, Canton and Portage County), is produced with the support of Meijer.

During the live show, these nominees will be honored, along with the several premier award winners, including Boys Athlete of the Year, Girls Athlete of the Year, Character Award, Coach of the Year, Team of the Year and Courage Award. Nominated athletes can receive a free ticket to the event thanks to sponsors by RSVPing here. Additional tickets may be purchased on the show’s website.
