Rayton scored 34 points last Friday in an 80-33 Centennial League home win over Junction City and had 19 points in a 53-45 non-league win over previously-unbeaten Highland Park on Tuesday in a matchup between USD 501 rivals.

Rayton, a 5-foot-6 guard, has helped lead Topeka High get off to a 5-3 record this season, with the Trojans already equaling their victory total for the entire 2023-2024 campaign.
