Greater Wichita City 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!
Darius Rogers Delivers Best Effort of Season
Darius Rogers produced his most outstanding game to date while leading Heights to the win on Friday. Rogers rushed for 127 yards and three touchdowns on only six carries, and also picked up 142 receiving yards and two touchdowns, good enough to set a new career-high in rushing yards in the process. He got the majority of those receiving yards when he pulled down a pass and took off for a gain of 81 yards.
For the season, Rogers has caught 3 touchdowns while averaging 37 receiving yards per game. It gets even more impressive: after seven games last season, he had two rushing touchdowns. This year he is already up to six.

Augie Fast Delivers Electric Performance Vs South
Augie Fast was a major factor in Northwest's win over South on Friday. Fast did his part (and then some), rushing for 216 yards and two touchdowns on only 13 carries for the 'W'.
Northwest pushed their record up to 6-1 with the victory, which was their fourth straight at home. Fast will try to repeat (or improve) on that dominant performance when he faces off against Eisenhower on Friday.

Big Game from Mason As Northwest Won 62-8
Another Northwest player making an appearance on this list is Jaylen Mason. He threw for 161 yards and three touchdowns, and also rushed for 73 yards and a touchdown on only nine carries.
This season, Mason has thrown 13 touchdowns while averaging 172.3 passing yards per game. That doesn't tell the whole story though: at this point last year, he had one rushing touchdown. This year he is already up to eight.
Gamescore: 41.03
Marcus Johnson Puts an End to Southeast's Losing Streak on Friday
Thanks in part to Marcus Johnson, Southeast said goodbye to their 14-game losing streak dating back to last season. Johnson did his part (and then some), picking up three sacks and making ten total tackles (6.0 for loss) for the 'W'.
Southeast's first victory this season bumped their record up to 1-6. It'll be Northside v. Southside when they and North meet at 7:00 p.m. on Friday.
