We're moving from the top fall sports team to the top fall male athlete in this week's poll question. Here are your four candidates:

Calvin Beckwith (Saratoga golf) -- The Blue Streaks' top golfer qualified for the state tournament with a fifth-place finish at the Section II championships.

Kyle Buss (Shenendehowa football) -- The senior was an all-around force as he gained 554 yards and scored six touchdowns on offense, and he made several key defensive plays including a pair of interceptions.

Dan Porter (Burnt Hills football) -- The senior may have been hobbled by an injury during the playoffs, but he still leads the Spartans with 881 rushing yards and 17 touchdowns.

Chris Schmid (Shen boys soccer) -- Had a great start to his senior season before being closely marked during the second half, yet still had nine goals and eight assists.

Voting is open until midnight Monday, and the results will appear in next week's Saratoga County edition.
