Suburban - Gold 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!
A Season-Best Performance from Brayden Layman Leads Lee's Summit over Raymore-Peculiar
On Friday, Lee's Summit got the W thanks in part to Brayden Layman playing the best football he has all season. Layman wasn't messing around, throwing for 220 yards and four touchdowns while completing 73.3% of his passes. The matchup was his third straight with three or more passing touchdowns dating back to last season.
The win (which was Lee's Summit's fourth in a row) raised their record to 6-1. Layman will have a chance to log another big game when he takes on Staley on Friday.

Big Game from Wilhelm As Blue Springs South Won 41-24
Blue Springs South found a leader in Ayden Wilhelm as the squad took down Liberty on Friday. Wilhelm did his part (and then some), throwing for 152 yards and two touchdowns, while also rushing for 76 yards on only six carries for the 'W'.
Unfortunately for Liberty, this isn't the first big game they've seen from Wilhelm. When Wilhelm last faced the Blue Jays back in November of 2023, he threw for 202 yards and two touchdowns, and also rushed for 53 yards and a touchdown on only five carries.

Kendrick Hawkins JR Dazzles in Blue Springs South Win
Keeping Wilhelm company is Kendrick Hawkins JR, a fellow Blue Springs South player. He rushed for 144 yards and a touchdown.
If the past is any indication, Hawkins JR could be in store for another big game when he takes on Blue Springs on Friday. Hawkins JR rushed for 138 yards and three touchdowns the last time he and the Wildcats duked it out back in October of 2023.
