It's time to vote for the Missouri Boys Performer Of The Week for the final time for the 2022-23 high school season.
Congrats to the last poll winner, Connor Burns of Southern Boone County, who had 54% of the vote. The Oregon signee won the 1,600-meter and 3,200-meter sectional titles and was part of a winning 4x800-meter relay team that will be qualified for the Class 3 finals.
This week Missouri's stars were spread across the state dropping some great performances at the Class 3-5 state meet.
The Purdue football signee set a new school record with a leap of 23 feet, 4 1/2 inches in the long jump to claim the MSHSAA Class 4 title on Friday at the MSHSAA State Track and Field Championships.
In his first trip to the state finals the freshman won the shot put in MSHSAA Class 5 with a throw of 19.60 meters, a new class record and gave him the title. He was also the runner-up in the discus event.
The Missouri football recruit set a new Class 5 record in the long jump and won the title while adding a gold medal in the triple jump as well this weekend at the state meet.
