Coming off a four-goal loss to state power Washburn Rural in its regular-season finale, Seaman soccer bounced back in a big way Tuesday, opening Class 5A postseason with an 11-0 regional victory over city rival Highland Park at Seaman.

Seaman coach Kyle Seevers said it was good to see his Vikings get back on track.
"After that under-manned game against Washburn Rural (5-1 loss) we had graduation and graduation parties all weekend, so it was like get a little training in yesterday and just get back at it and play a game today and have some fun and win and advance,'' Seevers said.

Junior Ava Golightley had a four-goal night for the Vikings while junior Ryin Miller had a three-goal hat trick, sophomore Monique Wilson two goals and seniors Anna Becker and Maegan Mills a goal apiece for the Vikings, who improved to 12-5-0 on the season.
Mills combined with Kelecia Hale for the shutout in goal while Mills' goal was the first of her high school career.
Tuesday's game ended at halftime by way of the eight-goal spread rule.

Mike Williams stepped down as Highland Park's boys basketball coach on Monday after a highly-successful seven-year run that included five Class 5A state tournament appearances and a runnerup state finish this past season.

Williams, who informed his Scot players of his decision Monday afternoon, said that stepping down at Highland Park, which gave him his first head coaching job in 2018, was one of the toughest decisions he's ever had to make.
"I'm wiping tears from my eyes right now,'' Williams told TopSports.news. "Highland Park took a chance on a young asstantant coach that had no head coaching experience and I had applied for jobs before and hadn't gotten an opportunity.
"I knew what I could do, or what I believed that I could do, but I wasn't proven and Highland Park and Topeka Public Schools as a whole, they had to kind of step out on a ledge to put me in the position that I've been in and I'm thankful for that, to be given this opportunity to be the head coach at Highland Park.''
Williams, the TopSports.news Shawnee County boys coach of the year the past three seasons after leading the Scots to a 71-4 record over that span, said that a big factor in his decision to step away from basketball was to be able to devote more attention to his family and his education.
Williams' son, Mike Jr., is a 2025 Highland Park graduate and will play college basketball at Barton County Community College, while Micah is a star sophomore soccer player for the Scots. Mike Sr. is scheduled to earn his Master's Degree in the summer of 2026.
"I want to make sure that people know that this wasn't because I got another job or I had a job offer waiting,'' Williams said. "I never put in for a head coaching job since I've been the head coach at Highland Park and I've never been offered another job, so it wasn't like I was running out for the next best opportunity.
''I wear my emotions on my sleeve when I get involved in something. I'm neck deep in it because I want to do a good job and I want to impact people, so I've been so wrapped up in Highland Park every day for the last seven years that there were a lot of times in my life when the basketball program came before me and the basketball program came before my family. I hate to say that because that's not the man I want to and as a father, but it was the coach that I wanted to be and the leader that I wanted to be for Highland Park.''

After Micah Williams had a 23-goal breakout soccer season as a freshman in 2024, it's no surprise that opposing teams have concentrated their defensive efforts on the Highland Park star this season.

But that game plan hasn't exactly been successful, with Williams scoring at an even more prolific pace this spring, including seven goals in Tuesday's 8-0 Senior Night win over Meadowlark Conference foe Kansas City-Harmon at Hummer Sports Park.
"I feel like coming into the season all the other teams already know of me, so every single team that we've played this year has already adjusted their back line to me,'' Williams said. "They already knew that they had to put double on me, they already knew all that, so I just came in and adjusted back.
"I made sure I could get around them and played to my team and they played back and we could still get past them.''
Williams' seven-goal explosion against the Hawks came on the heels of a six-goal performance a night earlier in a 6-3 Highland Park win over Ottawa.
Williams now has 36 goals on the season for the 5-9-1 Scots and 59 goals in her two high school campaigns.
The Scot star was quick to give her teammates credit for doing everything they can to create scoring opportunities for her.
"We've been practicing it in practice,'' Williams said. "We've been talking about it in games. We've been talking about it before games, in halftimes, after games. We've really been working on it.
"We've been doing through balls and give-and-gos. We've been watching other teams do it on us and we just take it back and do it on them, too.''
Williams is closing in on the goal for 2025 she set before the season.
"Last season I had 23 goals and this season I'm aiming for 40 goals,'' she said.

On a night that included four meet-record performances, Washburn Rural used its depth to sweep the team titles in Friday's Joe Schrag City Championship at Hummer Sports Park.

The Junior Blues posted a total of 11 event wins on the night (six girls, five boys), but more importantly had top-three finishes in 30 events (16 boys,14 girls) en route to a 227-133 win over Seaman for the Washburn Rural boys and a 219-141 victory over the Viking girls in the team standings.
"We do put an emphasis on this meet,'' Rural coach Keith Wetzel said. "We want to keep the golden shoes (championship trophies) in our trophy cases and we talk to the kids about the importance of this meet and doing well at this meet as it really is the beginning of the big four weeks of league, regional and state.
"Everyone contributes and we talk to the kids about how we need our depth and our depth is an advantage. Our kids have just been steadily improving each week and quietly putting together really good seasons.''

Highlights for the Rural boys included a city-meet record from Matthew Houser, Liam Morrison, Draden Chooncharoen and Isaiah Terry in the 4x400-meter relay (3:19.01) and a meet record in the open 400 from Terry (48.37) as well as a pair of wins from Morrison in the 110 hurdles (14.64) and 300 hurdles (38.83) and a victory in the 4x800 relay (8:16.84).

Miller also teamed with Taylie Heston, Jaida Stallbaumer and Ally Steiner for a win in the 4x400 relay in 4:09.05 while Stallbaumer had a hand in three wins on the night, sweeping the titles in the 100 hurdles (15.88) and 300 hurdles (47.63).
The highlight of Miller's day was her performance in the open 400, an event she rarely runs and is not scheduled to run again this spring.
"That was kind of my goal of the night, to try to shoot for our school record in that,'' Miller said. "I think I just beat it so I was happy with that and also got the meet record, so that was kind of a bonus.
"The 400 was definitely my main focus tonight.''

• Topeka West senior Adrian Lehman overcame a strong field to sweep the boys 1,600 and 3,200, clocking a time of 4:18.07 in the 1,600 and a time of 9:40.93 in the 3,200.
Lehman came from behind to top Wasbhburn Rural standout Brooks Kehoe (4:19.77) in the 1,600 and took control on the final laps to pull away from Rural's Henry Laubach (9:46.51) in the 3,200.
"I felt good,'' Lehman said. "I really wanted to have a stronger mile (1,600) and then come out and just win the two mile (3,200), so I'm happy with how it went.''
Lehman said that it's enjoyable for him to be able to see all the top local distance runners together in the city meet.
"I love seeing these guys, seeing how they've progressed through this year and it's just a lot of fun racing them,'' Lehman said. "They're my friends, too, so it's fun seeing them.''
Lehman's West teammate, Mark Wilkie, finished second in the 800 (1:58.81) and third in the 1,600 (4:22.29).
• Silver Lake's girls turned in a solid third-place team finish with 101 points, including a on-two-three finish from Ali Gerber (33-6), Kailyn Hanni (33-4) and Kylie Podlena (32-6) in the triple jump.
The Eagles also got second-place finishes from Kayleigh Kruger in the shot put (32-10) and the discus (112-7) while Journey Manhart finished second in the high jump (5-2).
On the boys side, Myles Fisher was the discus champion (141-6).

Seaman junior track star Ryin Miller continues to carve out her place among Kansas' all-time greats and took a major step in that journey in the Bob Camien/Claudia Welch Relays.

The Viking four-sport athlete captured three gold medals in Friday's 30-school meet while setting meet records in the 1,600 and 800-meter runs and climbing to the No. 2 spot on Kansas' all-time list in both events.
Miller said she does pay attention to where she ranks all-time as she continues to re-adjust her goals.
"Sometimes I kind of use it as motivation,'' Miller said. "If I'm having a day where I'm like, 'Man, I just don't feel like running,' I kind of remember (the all-time list) and remember that I've been chasing that and working for that all winter, so I definitely look at that.''
Miller began her record-setting day with a dominating 24-second win in the 1,600 in 4 minutes, 41:47, eclipsing the previous meet record by more than nine seconds.
Miller moved from fourth to second on the all-time list and now trails only former Shawnee Mission West star Ali Cash, who clocked a 4:38.28 in a time that was converted from yards (4:39.98) to meters.
Later in the evening, Miller got a battle from Leavenworth's Kelsie Kudzia for much of the race in the 800 before Miller took control down the stretch to win in 2:09.28. Kudzia was second in 2:11.20, moving into the No. 9 spot all-time.
"Kelsie is one of my teammates for Hot Beat, so it's always fun to race against her,'' Miller said. "She's been getting progressively better every meet so it's been fun to see that and kind of cheer her on.
"It was definitely nice to have her kind of on my heels and push me to finally break 2:10.''
Miller topped the previous meet record, set by former Seaman star Bethany Druse in 2022, by nearly six seconds while moving from fifth to second all-time.
Miller now sits No. 2 in the 800 behind former Shawnee Heights star Trisa Nickoley, who ran a 2:06.67 in 2004.
In the final girls event of the night Miller teamed with seniors Taylie Heston, Jaida Stallbaumer and Ally Steiner to win the 4x400 relay in 4:04.86, with Miller running the anchor leg.
Other meet highlights:
• Topeka High sophomore Ahsieyrhuajh Rayton was a double individual winner Friday, sweeping the long jump and triple jump titles while setting a school record in the process.

Rayton, who already held the school record in the triple jump, went 18 feet, 6 inches on Friday's final attempt to set the High long jump mark and win the event.
"It felt good,'' Rayton said. "My team motivated me to jump because I scratched both of my first two jumps, so my confidence got low, but they told me that I know how to jump and I just went out and gave it my best effort.''
Rayton only got off one jump in the triple jump before aggravating a leg injury in the 4x100 relay but won the event with an effort of 38 feet, 3.25 inches.
• Washburn Rural star senior sprinter Isaiah Terry has been locked in a battle with Hayden's Jensen Schrickel for the Shawnee County lead in the 400-meter dash this spring, with both standouts holding the top spot at different times.

Schrickel, who competed at Shawnee Heights Friday, took a slight lead into the week, but Terry regained the lead with a winning time of 48.20 seconds Friday night at Seaman.
"I pay attention to where I am compared to everyone else,'' Terry said. "I love comp. I think I run my best when I'm going against people who run the same time as me, so I honestly hope I get to race (Schrickel) and other fast people because that's going to make me my best.''
Terry's win in the 400 was one of two big highlights on the night, with Terry teaming with Matthew Houser, Liam Morrison and Draden Chooncharoen to win the 4x400 relay in a meet-record time of 3 minutes, 20.70 seconds.
Rural, which won by more than nine seconds, broke the previous meet record, a 3:21.8 by Topeka High in 1992, by more than a second.
• Seaman's Bryce Cochran won the boys 200-meter dash in 21.87 seconds and finished third in the 400 in 49.06.
Peyton Holmes took second in the 100 dash in 10.73.

• Topeka West's Adrian Lehman and Mark Wilkie went one-two in the 1,600 meters, with Lehman winning in 4:20.80 and Wilkie second in 4:24.81.
Wilkie also finished second in the 800 in 1:57.23 while Lehman placed third behind Washburn Rural's Brooks Kehoe (9:16.96) in the 3,200 (9:16.98).

Not everything went Washburn Rural's way in Thursday's city boys tennis tournament, but advancing to the finals in all four divisions was enough to give the Junior Blues a second straight city team championship at Kossover Tennis Center.
Washburn Rural dropped tight decisions in both the No. 1 singles and doubles championship matches, but the Junior Blues swept both No. 2 titles on the way to a 32-23 margin over runnerup Seaman while Topeka High was a point behind the Vikings in third place.

Rural got a title from Greyson Jones in No. 2 singles and from Ben Tryhus and Kieffer O'Connor in No. 2 doubles while while Keegan Knudtson was the No. 1 singles runnerup and Cale Deutscher and Dylan Willingham finished second in No. 1 doubles.
"We're a young team, we're still piecing together who's fitting with who and what arrangements work best for the team as opposed to the individual and we've come a long way since the first practice,'' said Michelle Rose, who is in her first season as Rural's coach.
"They're excited, I'm excited for them. I think we've got great opportunities ahead of us and it's going to be fun. We have incredible talent in boys tennis in Topeka.''
Individually, Thursday was a big day for Topeka High junior Tres Lassiter in singles and the Cair Paravel doubles team of juniors Eric Buchenau and Drew Fay.

Lassiter, in his first season of high school tennis, won the city championship in No. 1 singles with a 7-6 (8-6 tiebreaker), 6-4 win over Washburn Rural's Knudtson.
"This was one of my goals to win city,'' Lassiter said. "This was a big goal. I'm enjoying my high school season. I have a winning record right now and that's all I wanted this season, was just to have a winning record.
"Every day when I'm at practice my coach (Duane Pomeroy) and my teammates are getting me better and that gives me confidence for these up and coming meets that I'm about to do.''

Cair Paravel's Fay and Buchenau, a foreign exchange student from Germany, captured the No. 1 doubles title with a 6-4, 7-6 (7-4 tiebreaker) win over Washburn Rural's Deutscher and Willingham.
Fay had finished second in the city meet and fourth in Class 3A-1A in singles as a sophomore before making the decision to switch to doubles this spring.
"I want to play college tennis and you need to be able to play doubles to play college tennis,'' Fay said. "I wanted to get that experience and I also thought it would be fun and it's been a lot of fun.''
Fay and Buchenau are now 20-1 on the season after Thursday's hard-fought win over Deutscher and Willingham.
"We just wanted to stay level, play hard and whatever happened would happen,'' Fay said. "We didn't want to go out there and play scared and if we didn't play scared we would have been happy with the result. This was our best match of the year, so it gives us a lot of confidence.''
Seaman finished second as a team on the strength of three top-three finishes.
Ethan Winter placed third in No. 1 singles while Camden Dutton was the runnerup in No. 2 singles and the Vikings also finished second in No. 2 doubles.

After a slow start to Thursday's non-league girls soccer match against Olathe West, Washburn Rural put itself in position to pull out a victory before dropping a heartbreaking 2-1 overtime decision to the Owls at McElroy Field.

Rural rallied from a 1-0 halftime deficit to knot the game and had several near-misses in the second half before Olathe West junior Molly Collins scored the golden goal with just 13 seconds remaining in the first 10-minute overtime period.
"A tough game,'' Washburn Rural coach Brian Hensyel said. "We didn't get off to the start we wanted to. I thought we had some chances early to maybe grab a lead and then they got the first goal, so anytime you're playing from behind it makes life a little tougher.
"I liked in the second half how we came out and got an early goal and really battled. I thought there was about a 20-minute stretch there where we were maybe going to get another one and then both teams kind of got tired and when you get to overtime anything can happen.''
Owl senior Kinzie Taylor scored with 18:42 left in the first half to put Olathe West (5-3-1) in front 1-0 and that lead held up through halftime before Junior Blue senior star Kate Hinck scored on an outstanding individual effort to tie the game with 33:31 left in regulation.
Rural (7-2-0) put together multiple scoring threats the rest of the way, including a flurry of shots late in regulation, but was unable to find the back of the net and the game went to OT.
