    Want to take a moment and thank everyone who contributed to the renovation of our locker room. New custom lockers, furniture, rugs and televisions are all in place. Couldn’t have happened without the support of @MC_BIGBLUE and our parents. #programchanger #BIG

    I’m humbled by the amazing opportunity to lead this program and the young men within it. Excited to continue to run my race as I work to build champions, inspire their development, and grow our influence to impact the court, the classroom, and our community. #ROW #BIG #AEE #WAMC

    Heartbroken. Every memory I have in orange and blue has you in it. You were always there, faithfully serving. I’ll miss you trolling opposing teams from the press box, pacing the sidelines on Fridays, leading the way to road games and everything in between. You’re a blessing…

    If you know me, you know there’s no way I’d post anything in support of MSU or promote things they do. With that being said, I couldn’t post this fast enough! So proud of @Coach_ShunnB. This young man is going to do amazing things in our profession! Great addition @HailStateMBK

    College coaches, I’ve got guys here in Madison that will make your program better on & off the court. These are high level kids who love the game and want to continue to play at the next level. They’re winners on the court/in the classroom. Only two have offers

    Last night after the game in Olive Branch, Aiden loaded the charter bus with no issues. (They supposedly fixed it.) When we got to Madison Central, the lift wouldn’t let down. Without hesitation, the team came to Aiden’s rescue. Busted this mama’s heart wide open!

    Guys finish the regular season with 17 wins, the most by any boys team at MC since 2014. Now it’s time to reset and refocus. Postseason is the best season! 1-0 mentality! #ROW #RTL #FinishWell

    Great night to be a Jaguar! If you weren’t in the Jungle tonight, I pity you. Greatest game I’ve ever been a part of as a player or coach. Down 18 in the 4th. Never flinched, never quit. Kept chopping and found a way to be 1-0! Love my guys! The race continues. #Run #Obtain #Win

    Want to take a moment and thank @TameikaRBrown for the work she did on behalf of our basketball program to honor Corey Ray tonight. She is a fantastic coach and leader, and I’m privileged to work with her daily!
