<!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>We wrap up our look at guys across the state who earned all-league honors and should be ready for even more next year.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>We split Western Kansas into to articles. We follow the <a href="https://prephoops.com/2023/06/northwest-kansas-all-league-risers/">look at Northwest Kansas</a> with a look to the Southwest.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Here are some Southwest Kansas returners who earned all-league honors last season but maybe didn't receive the credit they deserve:</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>Great West Activities League:</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>Drayton Knoll</strong>, 6-foot-3 center, 2025, Holcomb – 2^nd team</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>He may be only going into his junior year of high school, but Knoll is a grown man. He had some big scoring nights and was a routine candidate for a double-double. He is just too big and powerful for most high schoolers to match and he will only get better as he grows into his body.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>Santa Fe Trail League:</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>Rylan Williams</strong>, 6-foot-2 forward, 2024, Rolla – 1^st team</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>It was a tough season for Rolla, but Williams was a bright spot. The junior contributed 8 points and 5 rebounds. He battles in the paint at both ends and does a lot of dirty work.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>Southern Plains-Iroquois Activities Association (SPIAA) League:</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='2387779' first='Dominic' last='Martin']</strong>, 6-foot guard, 2024, South Gray – 2^nd team</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>A streaky shooter, Martin can get hot and go for numerous threes in a game. He averaged 12 points per game for a diverse team. Martin racked up 36 points in the state tournament as the Rebels took home the third place trophy in 1A Div. I.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>Western Athletic League:</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='2387770' first='Tochi' last='Okoro']</strong>, 6-foot-4 forward, 2024, Dodge City – 2^nd team</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>An long, explosive athlete, Okoro brings to the court talents that make him a standout on the gridiron and on the track. Last season was a tough one on the court for the Demons, but they can build around Okoro, one of the top 2024s in the league, next season.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>Hi-Plains League:</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='2387811' first='Colton' last='Harbin']</strong>, 6-foot-2 guard, 2024, Wichita County – 1^st team</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>The 15-6 Indians were led by the versatile Harbin. He can heat up from deep, handle the ball and attack a defense. But perhaps best of all, he is a crafty ball hawk at the defensive end, producing 3 steals per game. The junior produced 14 points, 6 rebounds and 3 assists.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph -->
