High School Sports Stars Get Digital Awards

The Cincinnati. com site is running a weekly poll to pick the best high‑school athletes. Readers can vote once every hour until 4 p. m. on Friday. The poll is posted on the website and in the mobile app. The winners will no longer receive paper certificates. Instead, they get a PDF through a public Dropbox link the Monday after their win. Families can print it and share a photo with the newspaper’s gallery. The voting system blocks unlimited votes from the same Wi‑Fi network.If several people share a connection, they should turn off Wi‑Fi briefly to let each hourly vote count. The poll covers all sports during the high‑school season. Each week, new ballots appear at the bottom of the story on the site. The final ballot for 2026 will be posted on June 15. Families who want to see past winners’ certificates can access the PDFs at the provided link. They can then email a photo of the printed certificate to the newsroom for the gallery.
