Tuesday’s basketball scores, standings: Vote for Varsity Kansas Top Player (Feb. 9)
After compiling the game scores and the top player statistics from the area’s Kansas high school basketball games on Tuesday night, here are the four candidates for the Varsity Kansas Top Player of the week for boys and girls.
Last week, Belle Plaine’s Eli Wiseman and Rose Hill’s Lexie Rose won the Varsity Kansas Top Player poll for their performances on Friday, Feb. 5. Wiseman, a senior guard, scored 35 points in Belle Plaine’s 84-68 win over Independent, while Rose paced the Rockets with a team-high 17 points in their 47-46 win over Winfield.
(Updated team-by-team results for every boys team and girls team in the City League, all AV-CTL divisions, Central Plains League and Central Kansas League.)
Boys’ Top Player candidates
Maize’s Winston Bing
The steady senior guard for Maize led the Eagles with 18 points in a rivalry-game 62-53 victory over Maize South. The Eagles won their fourth straight game and improved to 13-2 this season.
Valley Center’s Gabe Phillips
Phillips rose to the occasion in the clutch, knocking down the game-tying three-pointer in the closing seconds to force overtime, where the Hornets eventually won 66-63 over Arkansas City. Phillips scored 21 points and notched a double-double with 10 rebounds, as Valley Center improved to 12-4 overall and 7-1 in AV-CTL Div. II play.
Rose Hill’s Adriel Smith
The Wichita transfer was back to his high-scoring ways in Rose Hill’s 71-58 upset over Augusta, as Smith poured in a game-high 29 points. Rose Hill has won eight of its last 10 games and improved to 9-5 this season.
Campus’ Zion Young
The sophomore exploded for a season-high 25 points to lead Campus in scoring in a 77-58 victory over Newton. The Colts won their 11th straight game and improved to 12-1 this season, while remaining a perfect 5-0 in AV-CTL Div. I play.
Girls’ Top Player candidates
Valley Center’s Anna Eldridge
Eldridge erupted for a season-high 25 points and outscored the entire Arkansas City team by herself in Valley Center’s 58-23 victory. The Hornets improved to 7-9 this season.
Southeast’s Jaila Harding
The Southeast senior star scored a game-high 25 points, as the Golden Buffaloes picked up an impressive 70-32 victory over North in City League play and improved to 10-5 this season.
Cheney’s Kylee Scheer
The senior scoring machine produced a game-high 27 points in Cheney’s dominant 68-39 victory over Trinity Academy. The Cardinals improved to 15-0 this season, as Scheer has been one of the state’s top scorers at any level this year.
Andover Central’s Bailey Wilborn
The senior was once again brilliant in Andover Central’s 67-57 win over Derby, as Wilborn finished with 24 points. The Jaguars knocked off another state-ranked team to improve to 14-0 this season.
