Willie Herenton Wins Player of the Week!
Congratulations to Stevenson 2017 point guard Willie Herenton on winning the PrepHoopsIllinois Player of the Week Award. Herenton won the fan vote with 69% of the 3,800+ votes cast. The runner up was Effingham sophomore Landon Wolfe who finished with 31%.
Herenton earned the nomination with his play against Zion Benton. The senior came up huge for his team scoring 34 points on 10-13 from the field to go along with 4 rebounds and 4 assists. The 2017 guard is having a strong close to his high school career and will need to continue to be Robin to Justin Smith’s Batman for Stevenson to make a deep run in the state tournament!
Congratulations again to Willie on winning the award. Check back next Monday to see who the next nominees are for the PrepHoopsIllinois Player of the Week!
