United Kansas Top Player Performances of the Week
Congratulations to this week's top players! We're covering the best performances from Friday's football action (using all statistics entered as of the time of writing). Enjoy!
Max Huston Goes Supernova in Seaman Win
Starting off the list is Seaman's Max Huston, who we judged to be the best player in the league this week. Huston rushed for 62 yards and three touchdowns, and also threw for 286 yards and a touchdown.
If history really does repeat itself, Huston might just drop another big game when he faces off against De Soto on Friday. Back in November of 2023 (the last time Huston saw the Wildcats), he rushed for 98 yards and two touchdowns on only ten carries, and also threw for 295 yards and two touchdowns.

A Season-Best Performance from Jayden Correa Leads Piper over Turner
On Friday, Piper got the W thanks in part to Jayden Correa playing the best football he has all season. Correa rushed for 107 yards and two touchdowns on only nine carries, and also threw for 151 yards and a touchdown on only 14 passes.
Piper's win ended a four-game drought at home dating back to last season and bumped them up to 2-5. Correa and Piper will face off against West at 7:00 p.m. on Friday.

Scott Made His Presence Known in Shawnee Heights' 31-21 Loss
Aiden Scott's tear continued on Friday as he dropped his third-straight game with 357+ passing yards. He threw for 414 yards and three touchdowns.
Shawnee Heights is on a five-game losing streak that has dropped them down to 1-6. Scott will try to repeat (or improve) on that dominant effort when he faces off against Turner on Friday.
