Pete Caster/Pete Caster / The News Tribune

Voting is now closed for The News Tribune’s high school Athletes of the Week in football and other fall sports (Oct. 10 to Oct. 15). This week’s polls also include contests scheduled for last week that were delayed until Monday due to poor air quality. Thanks to everyone who voted and supported local student-athletes.

This week’s winners are:

Dylan Spicer, Tenino football and Lemasino Fuamatu, Spanaway Lake volleyball

Spicer rushed for 284 yards and three touchdowns on 14 carries in a 66-26 win over Elma and Fuamatu had 23 kills, three assisted blocks, 18 digs and two aces in wins over Lincoln and Mount Tahoma.
