WATCH: Lincoln boys volleyball slips past Pawtucket in four sets
Watch as Lincoln boys volleyball takes the match-winning point vs. Pawtucket.
It’s time for our high school boys volleyball athlete of the week voting.
This week, and every week during the volleyball season, we will nominate a handful of standouts for the honor. To be nominated for the voting, we need the results of matches from the home coaches after the games. Coaches have been asked to email results to pjsports@providencejournal.com. We will handle the results from there.
This week’s ballot opened on Monday and closes on Friday at 11:59 p.m. Voting must be done online via the ballot below. Email submissions will not be accepted.
Lincoln’s Jackson Colton won bragging rights last week with 52.68% of the vote.
