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!
Lucas Meyer Delivers Electric Effort Vs South
Starting off the list is Heights's Lucas Meyer, who we judged to be the best player in the league this week. Meyer rushed for 135 yards and two touchdowns while picking up 8.4 yards per carry, and also picked up 65 receiving yards and a touchdown. That's the most rushing yards he has posted since back in September of 2023.
Meyer must have South's number; he was a force to be reckoned with the last time he faced them too. Meyer rushed for 138 yards and two touchdowns on only ten carries the last time he and the Titans duked it out back in September of 2023.

While Marcus Johnson delivered a dominant performance on Friday, a win just wasn't in the cards for Southeast. Johnson turned in nothing short of a gem, picking up two sacks, forcing a fumble, and making 12 total tackles (3.0 for loss).
