There were 5,615 total votes this week. Karissa topped all vote getters with 1,994 votes. Wauwatosa West's Simon Doyle came in second with 1,389 votes.

Karissa was excellent as Howards Grove took one step closer to winning back-to-back state titles in girls volleyball last weekend. In the sectional semifinal matchup with Iola-Scandinavia, she had a team high 11 kills and added five digs and two aces in the 3-0 sweep. Karissa followed it up with 15 kills, another five digs and two aces in the sweep of Wabeno/Laona in the sectional final.
