Who’s Got Next? | Readers Get Final 2020 SportStars Cover Choice

Final 2020 SportStars Cover, Fan Vote, Cesar Garza

SportStars is offering readers the opportunity to vote on one of seven images for its final 2020 cover.

Vote On The Final 2020 SportStars Cover — What Image Should Represent An Issue Containing Our Favorite Work From A Frustrating Year Paired With A Hopeful Look Forward?

So yeah, NorCal high school athletic programs are unlikely to remember 2020 with much fondness. We get it. However, SportStars worked throughout the year to find the positive spin on things. So while we’re looking ahead to a better 2021, we’re also compiling some of our favorite content from 2020. And we’re gonna need a final 2020 SportStars cover.

We’ve chosen seven photos from 2020 coverage that didn’t receive the cover treatment at the time. Now, it’s time for our readers to tell us which should get the nod this second time around.

Voting will be open until 9 a.m. on Dec. 31. Readers can vote once an hour, per IP address. We’ll showcase all seven options first, and then you can cast your votes below. Here we go!
