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 Performance 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.
South had to have seen this coming; the last time they saw Meyer it was a similar story. 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 Northwest might've come up empty on Friday, Jaylen Mason wasn't going down without a fight. Mason turned in nothing short of a gem, rushing for 94 yards and a touchdown, while also throwing for 113 yards on five of 18 attempts.
It'll be Northside v. Southside when Northwest's and South meet at 7:00 p.m. on Friday. The last time Mason took on the Titans, he threw for 160 yards and three touchdowns while completing 77.8% of his passes. Can he match (or beat) that performance?
