Both guys are great athletes and don't need a marathon click to point that out or to be recognized. As you have stated, Hillman has won many awards by the media and coaches, as has King. I could do the research and probably pull up the many awards that King has received on a team, league, county, state, and national level, I'm sure. This is not bashing on Hillman as he obviously has earned all his awards. I don't agree with you publishing how to set up your computer to automatically vote. That basically nulls and voids all future "fan based contests" I also don't agree with you that I am "biased and a fool". I am not biased as I don't really know Hillman personally. I am a South Coast League Fan and a King fan. I just simply vote as everyone else does for my favorite and who I think has the edge. The "fool" part and 'baseless accusations"...... I just simply pointed out the "fact" that there were 600 + votes submitted between the hours of 11pm-6am for Hillman. I did not accuse Hillman of submitting those votes. My best 'guess" would be that it probably is not 600 different fans though. I could be wrong on that! So I was happy to see that the votes got evened out and a new vote started. I am sure that this won't be the endall for either Hillman or King if they dont advance to the next round. Just another stupid contest. Have a great day! Dino,

If you go back and read my post, I speak about both men, not just Hillman. I also didn't solicit any votes for one person over the other. It's up to you to decide who you want to vote for. Read man...learn to read! While you are at it, take some time to look intelligent when you post; punctuation and spelling would be a good start. Next...

You CAN vote multiple times by hitting the refresh button in your browser and voting again (sorry, oc stand up). This can also be done by running a simple script that will automatically refresh and vote for you. The only way to prevent this is by limiting the vote based on IP address. This is easy to do also, but I'm sure OCVARSITY is not going to make the effort. This is a click contest to get people to come to the site, and nothing more. (BTW, the current voting CAN be tracked via IP address. I wonder if OCVarsity will publish those results.) diablohasbeen is a fool and biased. Its easy to hide behind a name and make baseless accusations about the voting. Taking a look at the current trend, it appears its OK when your guy is winning. diablohasbeen, how many times have YOU voted in this round? More than once? It's YOUR integrity being questioned here. Whether Preston or Ronnie wins this click contest is of no consequence to either one of them. They are both looking forward to the rest of their lives as they leave their high school days behind them. This is how it should be as they mature into the fine young men they are (too bad others here have failed to do so thus far). I know Ronnie has been honored by the awards he has won this year. These were voted on by the press and coaches...a much more important and legitimate process. So, click away, and at the end of the day, what does it matter? If your guy wins because you cheated, who did you honor? Yourself? This isn't supposed to be about you or your school, but about the two fine men being honored.

He's to humble for that, my opinion. He have already gotten. League, mvp, and All area, all cif, The Ancich player of the year.( 605 All star game award) That just the ones that i think of off the top of my head, there about nine in total. You can't sign up for this one right. This is a people choice award. You think Ronnie Hillman stayed up from 11pm to 6 am to vote for himself, I can't see him doing that.
