I'm a teacher/basketball coach at Collins High School in Shelbyville, Kentucky. I have a beautiful wife, Katie, and three wonderful children. Christ is King!!!
Thank you to all of KY HS Coaches, our out of state teams, and the
@khsaa
with entrusting KYs NCAA live period to Collins & Shelby County!
@EddieCOak
and I are beyond grateful to bring this event to Shelby County and want to thank all of our staffs, volunteers & all involved.
There are steps boys take in becoming men. A true exampe of selflessness today! As I was getting home from practice, a starting SR texted me requesting to come off the bench tomorrow so one of his teammates could start.
@marcellusvail02
this step of leadership made me proud!
Congrats to
@dayvionnn20
for winning the 8th regionKABC player of the year! He is everything we want in a student athlete (humble, coachable, loyal, dedicated). He is a leader in the school and community!
I’m not sure people realize how much time our media outlets invest at events for our kids…thank you to everyone promoting the student athletes at our Titans Rockets Shootout!
Thanks to Grayson County HS
@gchs_cougars
we have filled our last vacant spot and have reached capacity at 128 Varsity Teams. This is huge and makes everything flow...248 games in 3 days!!!
One week away: 96 HS Varsity Teams | 188 games in 3 days | 6 gyms | Two Tournaments (64 Team & 32 Team) | Love hearing about kids getting their first offer at our event!
Congrats to
@TimHaworth13
and the Male Bulldogs on winning the 2019 Titans Rockets Summer Shootout! Also, congrats to our other division champs

There were many 24/7 people this weekend: volunteers, college coaches, media, trainers and officials.

We want to a simple reminder that our event wants to create an environment that promotes the growth of student-athletes, represents your school/community well, and provides opportunities for our athletes to gain exposure for colleges at all levels.
2 former Titans
@stone_ralphie
&
@DeAndreFarris22
are doing an incredible job of coming back into the community and investing in kids...both former college athletes who are providing quality training (Ralph-basketball skills and Dre - Multisport footwork and athleticism).
#proud
Congrats to
@dayvionnn20
on making the All State team. He represents our program well, in many ways, and we celebrate this honor with him and his family!
You know you got a special program when former Titans Parents and Players come back to help for a big event. Thanks to everyone who made our first night a success!
Super proud to have this young man represent Titans basketball and join to 1000th point club with

My takeaway hanging out w/
@ben_omer2
& talking about his experiences at
@JSUGamecocksMBB
& an injury he’s battling. “I’m just here to serve the team in anyway I can.” There aren’t many college kids w a mature, others centered, mindset. Loved hearing about his spiritual growth!
@MustangsMatts
@dayvionnn20
His leadership, effort every possession, and his production these two games have should make him a front runner for Mr Basketball next season. You won’t find a better example of what Mr. Basketball should be in this state. And his teammates are all deserving as well!
Alert: Due to some teams dropping out this late, the KABC Titans Shootout (NCAA CERTIFIED) has two open spots for any Kentucky, Indiana, or Ohio high school varsity teams who are a part of their high school association. Please contact me if interested. Thank you!
The finals of the Titans Rockets Summer Shootout tips off at 2pm. We are going to have a Louisville battle as
@MaleBulldogs
takes on
@FernCreekHigh
Come out and watch an entertaining game.
We have one spot left...thank you Nicholas County and Coach Dylan Moran for getting his team in one of our open spots. This is tremendous and helps so much with keeping our event being smooth for all teams, athletes, fans, and college coaches! NEED ONE MORE TEAM!
Tonight was challenging…the first district championship the Titans have not played in and after looking at the banners in Shelby County’s gym realizing how long it’s been since a team from our community has not played in this game.
@OldhamCoMBB
A lot of respect for this team and their coaching staff...yearly battles with them, that provide excitement and heart break, are becoming a norm. Great season for a great group of young men being led by phenomenal leaders!
@dayvionnn20
has been selected as a finalist for Mr. Basketball Candidate & is the KABC 8th region player of the year. He is beyond deserving as a player and as a student athlete who represents everything we want in our athletes (humility, effort, loyalty, etc). Congrats!
Charlie won his only tournament of the year! My ruptured Achilles put competitive golf on hold. Thanks
@mfinneygolf
for the off season winter workouts - family almost ready to get back out!
@jmoore1828
@TeaganMoore7
An instant 8th region legend…rarely do you have to guard a high school player with 3 kids. Most importantly, he carried himself with top notch character! Always hate prepping for him and Carson, &Owen County, but have the upmost respect for him, their staff, and the Rebel fans!
We will be releasing our schedule for the TitansRockets Shootout this week! It is one of 18 NCAA certified events in the US! June 21-23!
@KHSAA
Over 60 varsity teams will be playing.
