But it’s not too late to take a look back at some of the best performances turned in by players who will be back for another go round this fall.
Here are some of the best performances from guards in the Flint Hills League last season:
Jerrod Campbell, 5-foot-10 guard, 2022, Northern Heights:
Campbell started the season as one of the biggest risers of the Flint Hills League as a junior. He turned in numerous double-digit contests before missing a lot of the second half of the season. Probably his most notable performance was a game he hit two 3-pointers and finished with 15 points against West Franklin.
Joel Deters, 5-foot-10 guard, 2022, Mission Valley:
Deters fed off the powerful bigs featured by Mission Valley last year. He averaged 11.4 points per game while focused on getting the ball to his teammates. Perhaps his best outing was against a talented Osage City team. He scored 16 points in a close loss to the Indians.
Kellen Marshall, 6-foot-1 guard, 2022, Council Grove:
Marshall can get hot and hit a lot of shots from deep. He hit three or more 3-pointers in just about every game he played last season. His highlight reel night was when he hit six 3s against Central Heights, finishing with 20 points.
Tyler Sage, 5-foot-10 guard, 2022, Osage City:
In terms of scoring, Osage City rode the considerable talents of Gunnar Fort Gunnar Fort 6'3" | SG Osage City | 2021 State KS and Landon Boss Landon Boss 6'1" | SF Osage City | 2023 State KS last season. But Sage played an important supporting role. He exploded for 16 points in one highlight performance against Silver Lake. Against the Eagles, Sage hit three 3-pointers and five free throws.
