The spring sports season is nearing the end of the season, and some athletes are getting ready for postseason action.
This past vote, Jordan Arguello of the Pueblo Central baseball team took home the Week 5 fan vote with over 65% of the votes.
Each week, the Chieftain recognizes the top student-athletes from area schools to highlight those who have performed at a high level. The Chieftain sports staff selects them. Coaches can nominate players by emailing [email protected] before Thursday night.
Pueblo Chieftain readers can now vote for their favorite high school athletes at the newspaper's website, chieftain.com. The poll is located at the bottom of the article and closes at midnight on Friday.
Each week, the winner will advance to the season's final vote.
(Please note, once an athlete wins a weekly vote, they will not be eligible to win again until the Spring Athlete of the Season vote.)
There are no voting restrictions, so vote now and vote often. This poll will close at midnight on Friday, May 8. Here are the Athletes of the Week for April 24-30.

Elson helped the Cyclones pick up a win against Thomas Jefferson, 15-1. He scored four goals and had two assists in the game, had one takeaway, and won four faceoffs. He is currently second on the team in goals scored this season with 14.
Burbidge carried the Thunderbolts in their 15-1 victory over Hoehne. He went 1-2 at the plate with an RBI and was also dealing from the mound, going six innings, giving up only one run on one hit while striking out 11 batters.
Crapeau scored four goals in the Lady Cyclones 10-6 victory over Denver North. It was the team's first win of the season. She leads the team in goals scored with 19 on the year.
Adams came up big for the Hornets as they defeated Pueblo Centennial 6-1. She scored two goals and chipped in one assist in the victory. She is currently third in Class 4A in goals scored with 25 on the season.
Mendoza showed up for the Cyclones in their 5-4 victory over Fountain-Fort Carson. He went 3-5 at the plate with a home run, three RBIs, and two runs scored.
Greenwood is proving why she is one of the top goal scorers in the area. She added to her team-leading 26 goals with three more in a 10-0 win over Sierra, earning the Bulldogs their 10 shutouts of the season.
Barger had a great game for the Hornets in just his second game back from injury. He went four innings, striking out four batters in a 10-0 victory over Pueblo Centennial.
Ruiz finished second overall in the Madeline Mellers Memorial Invitational at Hollydot Golf Course. She shot a 76 (+5) for the course, helping the Thunderbolts team take home first place overall.
Billings came up clutch for the Wildcats as they beat the Pueblo South Colts 6-5. He went 2-4 from the plate, hitting the game-winning double in the top of the tenth inning. He leads the team in RBIs with 17 on the season.
Andrada defeated Nadia Zi-Ahmadi of Pueblo West in the semifinals of the CHSAA Class 4A Region 7 girls tennis tournament to reach her second straight finals appearance in the regionals. She is 16-2 on the season and is seeking her second straight state championship appearance as well.
