It's time to vote for the Missouri Girls Performer Of The Week!
Congrats to Kayleigh Jenkins of Blue Springs who claimed last week's Performer Of The Week! She got 49% of the vote, winning a close battle with Centralia's Jozelynn Bostick. Jenkins took first place in four events at the Rusty Hodge Invitational at Blue Springs South, winning the 100-meter dash and high jump and being on two winning relays for the Wildcats.
