Cast your ballot: ESPNHS Fans' Choice
Rodney Purvis and Julius Randle vie for the 2011-12 Fans' Choice crown

ESPNHS Fans' Choice Player Introduction
When it comes to most sports awards, we media types have all the power in voting. As a result, fans are relegated to message-board and watercooler debates about whom they would've picked for the honors. Well, that's no longer the case.
We've restored the power to the people as part of the ESPNHS Fans' Choice Player of the Year award. We recruited eight of the nation's most decorated high school boys' basketball players before the season and gave them an opportunity to showcase their personalities and skills to see which baller is the most popular among hoops fans across the nation.
We told you back in November that your votes alone would decide the first ESPNHS Fans' Choice Player of the Year. Well, we're down to the final two candidates for the honor, so it's time for you to really make your vote count.
Wolfpack nation spoke up last round to help Rodney Purvis coast by Nerlens Noel, while Julius Randle got an assist from his fans in Big D to take down Shabazz Muhammad and join his good friend Rodney in the finals. You guys know just about everything about the final two, so there's nothing left to do but to get your VOTE on. But if you need to be swayed one final time.

Voting will end on March 25.

You've got the power. Now make your vote count.
