Once again, WMDJ Radio along with the Martin & Prestonsburg Dairy Queen is proud to present our 5th Annual "Ultimate Player of the Year" award during the upcoming 58th District Tournament to be held at South Floyd High School.

During the regular season, we have been honored to recognize 12 players for their efforts on the court as our "Star Performers of the Week". We have listed those players below as our version of an All-Conference team. I know we have left some well deserving players off our list, but we have only 12 weeks at our disposal. As a new country song by Bucky Covington says, "Not everyone made the team when we tried...We got disappointed, but that was all right." We have so many great athletes throughout the 58th District and to everyone, keep up the good work.

We have also listed our previous winners of the "Ultimate Player of the Year". This year's receipient of the UPY will receive a trophy, along with a $500 college scholarship to be presented after the district finals.
