The spot in the Top 5 that remained the same from the previous update was at No. 1 overall, as Aaron Bohannon Jr. Aaron Bohannon Jr. 5'6" | 170 lbs | RB Wichita East | 2026 State KS maintained his status as the top-ranked prospect in the class. There hasn’t been much buzz surrounding the No. 1 overall prospect, but that’s likely to change with summer quickly approaching. Bohannon Jr. announced earlier this month that he’ll be attending the first leg of this year’s KC Varsity Combines, and he’s likely to attend more showcases over the next few months. These showcases will be a great opportunity for him to prove that he belongs at No. 1.

Wichita Northwest has a menace lining up in the backfield in Aaron “Deuce” Bohannon. What Deuce has done to defenders should be illegal. Several plays last year looked like they should have been decent runs, but should be stopped and prep for the next play. What ends up happening is the linebacker gets left on the ground while the kicker trots out to kick the PAT. Deuce also holds the keys to allow him to shift gears and take off past the secondary, which he will not hesitate to pull out. He follows his blockers well, and even catches a few balls out of the backfield for some big plays. Although he may not be patient on some runs, or fight for the extra yards, he is only a sophomore next year. Northwest was one of the top schools across the metro because of Deuce and the other backs carrying the ball for the Grizzlies.
