United Kansas League:

De Soto returned a ton of talent from its run to the state finals a year ago. There wasn’t a lot of room for newcomers, but Lang’s versatitlity and athleticism got him on the floor. The work he did in support of the veterans even earned him some all-state mentions. He’s a lanky slasher who can handle the ball, create shots, defend nearly every position and make plays on defense with his length and quickness.
Jeremiah Lewis, 6-foot-2 guard, 2023, Leavenworth – 2nd team
A gifted scorer, Lewis can play a lot of spots with his ballhandling and shooting skills. He can get his shot off quickly from deep with a hand in his face, and his flashy ball handling can help him penetrate to shots too.
Frontier League:

Ryker Grossner, 6-foot-3 forward, 2024, Baldwin – Honorable Mention
Playing a supporting role on a talented team led by two seniors, Grossner was an important piece of the run to the 4A state tournament. He led the Bulldogs in rebounding with 7 boards per game. Grossner gave the team some of everything, including perimeter shooting, hitting 36% from behind the arc. He gave the team 8 points and 2 assists.
Kaw Valley League:
Jace Smith, 6-foot-2 guard, 2025, Bishop Seabury – 1st team
A playmaking sophomore for a resurgent Seabury team, Smith showed off his versatility for a balanced team. He excelled shooting from the perimeter and getting the ball to fellow scorers. Smith averaged 11 points, 6 rebounds and 4 assists. He shot 40% from deep on the season.
