My daughter, Kathleen Stralka, could use your help. Very deserving & a Warrior through-and-through. Made it to the last two Midnight Madnesses AND New Year's Day games! Closet full of gold t-shirts; bobblehead collection; DWade autographed picture. Current favorite player: Jae Crowder.
Playing in Illinois 4A finals this weekend!
Thank you all in advance for your help.
Have to stick with a fellow Jesuit school player. Voted and passed along.
Looks like she's got a pretty nice lead!
Tossed in a couple votes for her .. seems to have a commanding lead.

Dude.
No seriously. The other contestants have their pics up on that page and our candidate doesn't. Gotta get her winning mug out there :)
Voted.
Good Luck!
Done!
Done! Good Luck
Neck and neck now. Keep voting.
See your point about the photo. But according to the little paragraph on how to nominate someone, it says pictures have to be submitted with the nomination, so maybe the publication decides which to show? I don't think the three pics up there are of any of the nominees for this week, though one of the little ones is.
None of the nominees are swimmers, as depicted in the photos.
She just got my vote. Currently up 73 - come on Scoopers!
Mental note .. you can spawn a "private browsing" window and vote again, close, repeat.
I also had luck disabling cookies .. vote .. refresh, repeat.
I got her up to 1300. Over a 50 vote lead atm.
Thanks for all your help so far. Most grateful.
Here's a picture (I hope) of her (#23) jumping tip against a girl who is first-team all-state and was a Marquette target, but ended up signing with DePaul.

Dude .. just attach the photo to the message here. Click "Additional options" on the lower left.
Dangit, now down 300 votes. Someone is cheating faster than we're cheating.
Down 2000, but I'm on it.
And thanks for the "tips" - I have it down to two clicks - 1 vote...every 2 seconds! ;D
Holy ballot box stuffing, Batman. -4000.
Yeah, that kid must have an army taking the same shortcuts. Damn smart kids! Oh well, we'll take solace in that we're playing for the championship this weekend.
Stand down and thanks for helping this old Scooper out!
(Who learned how to post a picture in the process!)
What? You're quitting? Was it over when the Germans bombed Pearl Harbor?
Hell No!
Very impressed Hilltopper - I can see someone's plugging away! Since I'm stuck in a hotel room I'll put some more time into it.
I'm super cheating. iMacro for Chrome. Had 3 threads running and after about 300 votes, the Patch site banned me. Back in now. Maybe just one thread will do it, leave it going over night.
I have no idea how to do what you're doing, but I will say this: Scoopers are Awesome!
+1,000,000,000
Just like the Warriors (last night excepted), caught up after a big deficit!
Really hope you were kidding about the "Germans" bombing Pearl Harbor.. ;D

Forget it, he's rolling.
Kids these days.
Way to stick it to New Trier.
Voted but who the heck is Danny Katz?
damn it, the lack awareness for Animal House on this site is appalling. But yet I bet tons of guys have the poster hanging in their dorm room right now.
His daughter's playing right now on ESPN3.

Sorry, but I'm glued to the UNC-Duke game.
First, let me thank my MUScoop brothers & sisters for their support in this endeavor. We polled over 115,000 votes for my daughter! Unfortunately, the opposition polled over 150,000. As was noted earlier, they cheated more efficiently than we did! ;) It didn't help that much of our support group was unable to get much voting done today as we were down in Bloomington for the State finals.
In fact, we just got back where we lost the 3rd place game in OT by 2 points. My daughter had a pretty good game, going 4 for 6 from three-point land. Pretty good finish for a team that wasn't even ranked or on anyone's radar at the beginning of the season.
Thanks again for your help. Much appreciated.
