The Florida High School Girls Flag Football season is in full swing and we begin our Player of the Week polls for areas all around the state. Teams have started off the regular season with some great individual performances.

As such, we have 14 athletes nominated this week for the High School On SI's Tampa Bay (Hillsborough, Pinellas counties) high school girls flag football player of the week award from March 24-29, and we ask you, the fans, to help decide who should indeed be the top athlete selected. Voting will conclude on Sunday, April 6th at 11:59 p.m. The winner will be announced in next week's poll. 

Editor’s note: Our corresponding poll is intended to be fun, and we do not set limits on how many times a fan can vote during the competition. This poll is specifically for fans to vote on the players that have been nominated and in no way discredits any other player that may not be mentioned in our poll.

Here are the nominees:

Sydney Elizondo, Lennard

The junior quarterback is showing why she's one of the best in the state, beating the No. 1-ranked Robinson. Elizondo completed 29-of-35 passes for 201 yards and four touchdowns.
