American professional stock car racing driver Joey Logano has been selected as the Hickok Belt® Award winner for November 2024. Voting was conducted by a select panel of members of the National Sports Media Association (NSMA). Logano was selected after locking up the NASCAR Cup Series Championship Race, which took place at Phoenix Raceway. He earned the 2024 Cup Series title in a suspense-filled ending to close out the year. In the final laps Logano held off Team Penske driver Ryan Blaney, who finished second in the race. Joey Logano became one of only five drivers in NASCAR history to win three Cup titles before the age of 35.
Other finalists for November in order of how the NSMA ranked them were: Lamar Jackson (football), Abdi Nageeye (running), Shella Chepkirup (running), Ja’Marr Chase (football), LaMelo Ball (basketball), Max Verstappen (auto racing), Giberto Ramirez (boxing) and Martin Necas (hockey) – tie, and Flip Gustavsson (hockey).
Logano’s selection as the Hickok Belt® winner for November recognizes him as “the best of the best” in professional sports for the month. It also makes him the tenth candidate eligible to receive the 2024 overall award, joining Freddie Freeman, Shohei Ohtani, Katie Ledecky, Simone Biles, Luka Doncic, Scottie Scheffler, Mikaela Shiffrin, Patrick Mahomes, Jannik Sinner and other finalists throughout the year based on NSMA voting.
