Josh Voeller of Nickerson is the definition of an inspirational athlete. A hardworking competitor and supportive teammate, Josh brings positivity to every practice and game—always lifting others up and showing respect to everyone on the court. ❤

A senior at Nickerson High School, he’s known as the ultimate hype man, showing up with energy and encouragement no matter the score. Even during personal challenges, Josh continued to lead with a smile and a great attitude.

That’s why Josh Voeller has been named the 2026 Hays State Basketball Most Inspirational Athlete.
