Thank you for your thoughts, prayers, and messages today and these last couple of weeks.

Great HS soccer career,
@Soph_Shepherd10
! Came up a little short 2x in the State Championship game but you can hold your head high. Somebody will be getting a great kid and player in college. Best years still ahead of you. Love you!
Hoopers, instead of shooting arrows or other self serving celebrations after making a 3-pointer, do this: sprint back on defense and point to your teammate who got you the shot!

Coaches: Like you, your players have difficult things going on in their lives outside of sports. If we put the same thought and effort into leading their hearts that we do their skills, we can have a life changing impact that will reach far beyond the playing surface.

So proud of you,

Beautiful inside and out. It’s a great blessing to be your dad and I love you so very much.
Keep shining for Jesus and putting Him first in your life.
Proverbs 22:6
Sport parents: Support your kids coaches. Know that they see things from a
#team
perspective and at times that means our kids may play a different role than they/we may understand or like. Support your kids coaches anyway.
Great honor for Izzy Shepherd to make the Hamilton County HM Team after leading Carmel in scoring for the 2nd consecutive season.
She joins three 2024 Indiana All Stars and three 2025 Junior Indiana All Stars on this list.
What a talented county for basketball!
⛹🏼♀️🏀💙💛
Walking the soccer fields today and sad to see and hear so many “coaches” across from the bench. Parents, we are creating confusion and selfishness in our kids. Sit back, relax, and enjoy the show. It will be worth it in the end. I promise.
Always great to connect with my basketball family. Thanks
@Coach_Shrews
for having us on campus and showing us around the amazing facilities. Always rooting for you!
Incredibly blessed to be coached in High School (
@CarmelMBB
, Bob Heady) and College (
@HuntingtonHoops
, Steve Platt) by Indiana Basketball Hall of Famers
@HoopsHall
. The life lessons learned and life opportunities provided will be cherished forever.

New Year’s Shootout. Pups ➡️ Hounds
Players: I was able to play college ball because I could shoot. That’s it. So if that’s your dream, grab a ball and find a hoop and shoot. Every day. Like financial investments, the earlier your start and the more shots you take, the larger the return.
