High School on SI Florida is encouraging the fans to vote for who they think will be top returner by their specific position on the basketball court.

Florida high school girls' basketball is about to ramp up summer leagues throughout June, and the Sunshine State has produced a load of talent heading into the 2025-2026 season.

All the candidates already have varsity experience as starting small forwards, making names for themselves, putting up efficient numbers during the 2024-2025 season.

Editor’s Note: High School on SI voting polls are intended to be a fun way to create fan engagement and express support for your favorite high school athletes and teams. Unless expressly noted, there are no awards for winning the voting. Our primary focus is to highlight the abilities and accomplishments of all the athletes and teams included in our poll.

Voting will end on Sunday, June 1st at 11:59 p.m. Eastern Time
