i heard that sharese "winkie" jones dad taught her and her big sis shak the game of basketball. after watching these two kids play, they understand the game, not just play! that is what you call ballers these days

shame on the this website and the people in charge of this contest, that allowed these kids and those individuals who got on this website and pushed these total points at all cost.listen up parents and kids!its not about WINNING ALL THE TIME!we have to teach teach teach character!NOT WINNING!ITS ABOUT HAVING FUN

im just kinda wondering?what will they win?a new car?duh!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

me and my roommates think it is kinda entertaining though!hee hee

trevor you are winner!

MS. MALLORY, YOU ARE MAKING ALLEGATIONS AGAINST CHILDREN. HOW DO YOU KNOW THEY ARE CHEATING......THESE ARE THINGS KIDS DO AND ESPECIALLY WITH TWO RIVAL SCHOOLS THEY ARE TRYING TO MAKE THEIR FRIEND STAND OUT. I THINK YOU SHOULD TEACH YOUR SON NOT TO JUDGE AND ESPECIALLY WHEN YOU DON'T KNOW THE FACTS. LET KIDS BE KIDS. LEXIE AND SHARESE CANNOT CONTROL WHAT OTHERS DO AND I BELIEVE THEY BOTH HAVE VERY BRIGHT FUTURES AND ARE CONCENTRATING ON SCHOOL. PERHAPS YOU AND YOUR CHILD NEED SOCIALIZATION SKILLS....YOU KNOW HOMESCHOOLING KEEPS YOU NARROW MINDED SOMEWHAT....NOT IN A BAD WAY BUT READ THE RESEARCH ON THAT.

this athlete of the week contest is getting ridiculous.everybody know what the kids are doing on their computers,its a no brainer what's going on here.should'nt you girls be studying?if not tell your classmates,computer geeks,janitor,bus driver,taxi driver,buddies,family,teachers,coaches,friends,mom and dad,neighbors,fireman,police,store clerk,computer geeks,doctor,lawyer,teammate,boyfriend,etc, to stop it!everything i earned when i was your age,i worked for it!it was hard.but now you got these darn computers.oh my

sharese jones,you have earned so many awards and you are a dynamite player.every award you have earned you worked hard.dont worry about this award.congrats kiddo!i wish you much success in your future endeavor.

being player of they year and not player of the week speaks volume

Mrs Mallory,
just for your information if you read the rules for this contest, its about who gets the most votes not how you get them. So shame on Mrs. Mallory for not reading correctly, so SHAME ON YOU for holding your kids in a house for hours, not allowing them to experience a social life. SHAME ON YOU!!!!! One more thing how about you teach your children when they get older how to act like an adult, because it seems that you didn't learn that yourself. Shame on you Mrs.Mallory. god bless you, and let kids be kids. o and one more, last comment, everybody was having fun until you commented on this website, so please dismiss yourself and go teach teach teach!!!!

umm all this is, is just friends wanting to see their friends succeed and i support sharese jones all the way !!!!!!

I am a friend of one of these athletes and you get nothing for it except bragging rights not a car, so that was a dumb comment. Personally sharese jones is the best athlete out of all these other in this contest. Wether not she wins everybody knows who owns the court!!! so go ahead and get your picture in the paper because that will be your only publicity. I support sharese all the way because she is strong and an outstanding person. GO SHARESE!!!!!

Its just about fun guys...there's multiple people trying to make their favorite athlete win...don't take life so seriously! I saw Sharese on Sat...she's great. I know Lexie and Lance personally...they're great too. Nobody on that list loses...to be included in the player of the week, they've already trained hard and proven they're all winners. Gratz to all four.

Hi folks. Patch would like to remind everyone to please be respectful of one another in the comments section. The St. Charles County Athlete of the Week poll is a friendly competition and to be nominated recognizes each athlete's success. The "winner" has the chance to answer a few questions about themselves and be featured in a story, like this one we did last week about Austin Rugraff. http://patch.com/A-rwX4

well unfortunately kalen ponche its too late for that.people in the world today,some of them only understand winning.it is obviously painful to see that this system of voting has flaws and it failed.no one should ever have thousand of points.these kids don't even know that many people.that amount of points im seeing would equal a small city.these kids don't even know they many people.they are letting their little fingers and their friends,family,teammates,and associates do the walking for them.what a shame.how about creating a system that will not let this happen again.it would not take much to conquer.i do not believe this is fair to trevor and lance.you are only a kid one time,but these kids are our future.let's teach them value,resposibility,and most of all sportsmanship!one day these kids will realize,it feels so much better to do things the right way.thnx

is a little country

my wife would like to leave this comment:why are the parents allowing this?they know darn well what is going on.sad

my brother do not know how to use the computer so here is his comment:when this young lady find out she won this contest and she stand there and do that interview and she see her article in the papers.you know what?she will holler,act surprised,pretend to be happy,smile,get her 5 minutes of fame,do the interview.but you know what.deep inside she wille unhappy,because she know deep inside that she did not win this award YOU all !so listen up kids,don't be a follower.be a LEADER!!!!!!!!

LEXIE BE A LEADER NOT A FOLLOWER.KENT

Thanks guys

Perhaps Kalen Ponche will examine their system and prevent the next week contest for allowing people to vote more than once from one computer. As an IT specialist that software and prevention does exist. As for this contest, I feel The Patch Newspaper should make all four athletes "Players of the week!"

I TOTALLY AGREE WITH YOU TRACYE.HOW ABOUT THAT KALEN PONCHE/THE PATCH NEWSPAPER?ALL 4 OF THESE KIDS SHOULD WIN THIS CONTEST.AFTER ALL THEY ARE ALL WINNERS ANYWAY.RIGHT NOW LEXIE IS UP WHAT?MAYBE 100,000 OR MORE.I DONT REALLY PAY TOO MUCH ATTENTION TO THE NUMBERS.MY SON ASKED ME TO COME TAKE A LOOK AT THIS.I READ KALEN'S COMMENT.HOPEFULLY, THIS IS A LEARNING PROCESS FOR THEM,AND THEY WILL ADDRESS THIS PROBLEM

AS A YOUNG KID WE LIKE TO KEEP UP AND DO WHAT EVERYONE ELSE IS DOING.I JUST HOPE THIS CONTEST WILL BE A LEARNING PROCESS FOR ALL YOUNG KIDS TO VIEW, AND LEARN FROM.I JUST HOPE AFTER THIS WEEK,THIS SELFISH ACT OF BEHAVIOR,WILL NOT CREATE SO MO HAVOC THAT NO ONE WILL EVER WIN THE OLD FASHIONED WAY.HONESTLY.THE CONTEST RULES STATES THAT THIS CONTEST IS OVER AT I BELIEVE 9PM.WHY IS HER POSSE STILL VOTING.SHAME ON YOU GUYS.THIS IS THE TIME FOR ALL YOUNG KIDS TO GROW UP.AFTER TODAY,EVERY CONTESTANT FRIENDS FAMILY AND ASSOCIATES WILL SPEND EVERY SLEEPING HOUR VOTING.I SAY "GET A LIFE".

class 5 semifinals in columbia mo today.zumwalt west lost 43-27.

instead of calling the contest the patch player of the week.how about calling it the patch fastest fingers of the week?

yea

i have a good idea. how about changing the name of the patch player of the week contest? how about calling it the player with fastest fingers of the week.just a thought

Hey Patch admin...I'm just curious...regardless of the outcome, has there ever been a vote that generated this much attention? Everybody I know is talking about this. This has got to be great publicity for your website! (Which causes hits...which generate revenue...) I think the real winner of this week's contest is Joe Barker! :)

HEY PATCH WHEN WILL THE LATEST CONTEST END?THE ONE THATS SAYS VOTE FOR ATHLETE OF YEAR?
H

Let you all know lexie is an amazing athlete. I go to west. She has a leadership quality that sets her apart from the rest. And she's genuine. And just because her brother can reach out to half the state doesn't mean anything. T.j. Deserves his fame at west and mizzou. Lexie is starting her own path. Love ya lex
