Fans Decide the Top Small‑School Softball Star in Gainesville

The spring sports season in the Gainesville area has wrapped up, and the local newspaper is sharing its All‑Area teams for six sports.
The list includes:

• Baseball
• Softball
• Lacrosse
• Flag Football
• Tennis
• Track & Field

Each sport’s best player is highlighted as Player of the Year.

Interactive Poll

This time, readers get to weigh in. A poll lets everyone vote for who they think deserves the title in each sport.

• Softball: 12 candidates listed; voters may cast as many votes as they wish before the deadline on Tuesday at noon.

The newspaper’s own pick for small‑school softball is Addison Allaire from Trenton. He has earned a scholarship to play at Florida and was named Player of the Year in the preliminary announcement. Fans can compare his stats to those of the other eleven nominees and decide whether they agree with the editors.

• The All‑Area teams are available online.
• A friendly reminder encourages people to share the poll with family and friends.
