Bleeding Bruin Blue Athlete of the Week: January 4-10

The Bleeding Bruin Blue Athlete of the Week for January 4-10 is Andy Slagel. To know exactly what Andy has done to deserve this honor, type his name into the search box at the top of the page (or click here). If you don't understand the award, feel free to comment (link at the bottom of the post) or e-mail me.

Eligibility: Literally all Bruins in a position to win any high school athletic letter (varsity, JV or freshman) during the current season, and their middle school counterparts, are eligible. The only exceptions are the winners from the last three weeks: Slagel and Twila Albrecht. As three weeks have elapsed since his win on Dec. 21, Jordan Weaver becomes eligible again next week.

Next Week: Next week's nominations will be due Sunday, January 18, at 6:15 p.m. Eastern Standard Time. The list of times by week is linked to on the right side. As I said several months ago, the first person to correctly name how I determined the times will get mentioned in a future post. To nominate someone, send an e-mail to senorloco1908@gmail.com and put "AOW nomination: [name of athlete ('athlete' is singular, not plural)]" in the subject line. (You can even include the quotes if you want.) The body of the message can be used for whatever you want. The three simple things that will disqualify a message are:

1. A subject line that reads "AOW nomination: [name of athlete ('athlete' is singular, not plural)]" without actually naming an athlete.
2. Anyone nominating multiple people will have only the last nomination counted.
3. Señor Loco reserves the right to ignore e-mails with unnecessarily vulgar sections.
