On DesMoinesRegister.com/HSInsider, readers each week will determine a Iowa high school football Performer of the Week.

The Register’s John Naughton will keep tabs of the top performances each Friday night, and determine the five players who will serve as the week’s Performers of the Week nominees. Readers can begin casting votes on Saturday at 3 p.m.

To nominate an outstanding athlete and performance, contact John Naughton at jnaughton@dmreg.com or on Twitter at @JohnNaughton  by noon on Saturday.

The winners will be announced at noon Thursday each week at DesMoinesRegister.com and in Friday’s print editions.
