The fall weather is creeping in around Kansas City, setting the scene for some epic performances by high school football players.

And you can now decide which player had the best showing under the Friday night lights.

The Star is holding a weekly poll for readers to vote on their favorite student-athlete. The poll will be posted online each Wednesday, with voting open until Thursday night. The winner is announced each Friday.

To put together the poll, The Star asks high school football coaches around the metro for their nominations and looks at statistics posted by schools on high school sports websites like 810 Varsity and MaxPreps. The Week 2 winner was Rockhurst High School senior Charlie Loose.
