Wolfenbarger is a sophomore pitcher and designated hitter on Harris County’s softball team. In games against Griffin, Columbus and Houston County last week, she batted 6-for-10 with two home runs, two doubles and four RBI. She earned the pitching victory in a 5-1 win over Houston County, allowing three hits in six innings with eight strikeouts.

Among this week’s five nominees, Wolfenbarger received 56% of the 23,767 votes from our readers. Voting started Monday and ended at noon Friday. The poll has no limit on the number of times a person can vote. Here are the complete final results:
