Here is the Rockford Register Star's Athlete of the Week winner for April 22-27

After over 100,000 votes, this week's winner of the Rockford Register Star's High School Athlete of the Week poll is in: and it's Polo softball star Cheyenna Wilkins.

Wilkins has been on a tear and last week she struck out 11 and gave up just three hits in Polo's 15-4 win over Eastland last Thursday while also going 2-for-3 with an RBI at the plate. She followed that up by garnering 40,934 votes to pull away for the win in the poll for the week of April 22-27.
