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!
Deandre Rogers Jr's Big Game Can't Quite Lead West over South
Starting off the list is West's Deandre Rogers Jr, who we judged to be the best player in the league this week. Rogers Jr rushed for 131 yards and two touchdowns while picking up 8.2 yards per carry. That's the most rushing yards he has posted since back in September.
West is on a five-game losing streak that has dropped them down to 2-6. They and East will meet in a classic East v. West matchup at 7:00 p.m. on Friday.

Mason Posts Huge Game in 31-28 Win
Winning always takes teamwork, but on Friday Jaylen Mason stepped things up a notch to give Northwest the 'W'. Eisenhower had no answer to Mason as he threw for 188 yards and two touchdowns, and also rushed for 91 yards.
On the season, Mason has thrown 15 touchdowns (and and only 2 picks) while averaging 174.2 passing yards per game. That doesn't tell the whole story though: at this point last year, he was only averaging 16 rushing yards per game. This year he is averaging 65.25 rushing yards.
Gamescore: 29.63
Ja'mari Bland Turns in Season-Best Effort
On Friday, Northwest got the W thanks in part to Ja'Mari Bland playing the best football he has all season. Bland picked up a sack and made ten total tackles (3.0 for loss).
This year, Bland has averaged 7.4 total tackles per game and for the season has those 1 sack.
Gamescore: 22.00
Maurice Mansaw Makes Top Five
Rounding off our Top Five is Maurice Mansaw of Heights. Mansaw forced a fumble and made 14 total tackles (1.0 for loss). He is on a roll when it comes to total tackles, as he's now made five or more in the last six games he's played.
Mansaw and Heights will head out on the road to challenge South at 7:00 p.m. on Friday. The last time Mansaw took on the Titans, he made 15 total tackles (1.0 for loss). Can he match (or beat) that performance?
