Lee's Summit Gets a Boost from Layman in 63-28 Win
Another Lee's Summit player making an appearance on this list is Brayden Layman. He threw for 270 yards and three touchdowns while completing 71.4% of his passes. He is on a roll when it comes to passing touchdowns, as he's now passed for three or more in the last four games he's played.
This year, Layman has thrown 21 touchdowns while averaging 256.6 passing yards per game. That doesn't tell the whole story though: at this point last year, he was only averaging 14.06 passer rating per game. This year he is averaging 121.1 passer rating.

Cirron Harrison Delivers Best Effort of Season
Lee's Summit North was led to victory by Cirron Harrison, who turned in his biggest game of the season on Friday. Harrison picked up 2.5 sacks, forced a fumble, and made six total tackles (4.0 for loss).
If history really does repeat itself, Harrison might just drop another big game when he faces off against Lee's Summit on Friday. Back in November of 2023 (the last time Harrison saw the Tigers), he picked up two sacks, forced two fumbles, and made three total tackles.
