Spring sports have officially all reached the postseason, with all remaining sports either having their regional or state competitions this week. With that have come some standout performances from local athletes at some of the biggest moments of the season. Here are this week’s selections for Athletes of the Week:

Eudora’s Jaiden Burris smiles as she rounds the bases after a home run during a game against Parsons on Wednesday, May 21, 2025, in Eudora.

In Eudora softball’s regional tournament, Burris was perfect at the bat. In the 16-0 win over Parsons, Burris had two hits in two plate appearances with a home run. She followed that up with three hits in three at-bats against Chanute, including a walk-off grand slam.

Nate Schworm, Lawrence

Schworm had the seventh-best individual score in the 6A Lawrence regional on Tuesday, scoring a 75 at Eagle Bend Golf Course. He led a Lawrence team that finished sixth, and Schworm will be the team’s lone representative at the state golf meet that starts on Tuesday.
