My uncle was laid to rest today. I’ve gone through just about every emotion this week but I’m so proud of the work our guys put in. I hope we made you proud as well unc 🙏🏾 May you forever rest in peace ❤️

10 years ago the Knights made the trip to Merrillville to face off against the 59ers. We were told this was the team to end our 22-game post season win streak. Needless to say we had other plans and were on a mission to get to our 4th straight State Finals appearance..

I’ll be the first to vouch,
@BishopLuersFB
has worked for everything they have and will accomplish. Has nothing to do with recruiting. Y’all gotta let that hate go for the private schools 😭
Man, who knew that at age 26 I would be blessed with my second DC gig..🙏🏾 I would like to thank Bishop Luers for giving me to the opportunity to give back to a program that means so much to me. The Lu community believed in me and for that I am truly grateful. Forever a Knight!
Your work on the field spoke for itself but for us, our bonding was right here on this court. Some of my favorite memories were you showing up two hours early before training sessions to get hooped by me in 1-on-1 🤣 I miss that 3 ball already O 😔

On Friday, Krashaun Menson crossed the 100-tackle mark in just 11 games played this season, with his 101st tackle coming on a 4th & 1 stop to seal the win. I see you Money 👀💰
@KrashaunMenson
Coaches talk a lot about how important academics and athleticism are for an athlete but not enough about character. Can I trust you to do the right thing on and off the field? Will you be a liability? Are you a good teammate??
What
@CarsonRClark10
and the receiving core for Luers is doing so far is nothing short of special. Not to mention the on point play calling by
@JeffStanski
. Very exciting offense to watch.
Eastside played one hell of a game with a great gameplan against the Knights last night. They controlled the clock and played good enough defense to keep Luers out of the endzone majority of the game. Oh, and Laban Davis is the TRUTH‼️
My baby spent her birthday weekend supporting me at our 7v7 event. We drank some wine and ordered crab legs for takeout 🤣 if that doesn’t define us then idk what does lol I’m so grateful ❤️ (pic was from Valentine’s Day😅)
@MThomas_03
Eastside beat Luers by 7 two years ago. Luers beat Eastside by 7 last year. Both teams are playing their best football right now. No question this is the game of the week!
Today starts my 6th year of coaching and it has me reflecting on my time with

this weekend. Came down with 9 teams competing in 5 different age divisions and came back with hardware in 12U and 18U ending with a draw on technicality. You simply cannot ignore the development anymore. Our boys put the work in!!

This young man is special. I’ve only know him for about 6 months and he exceeded every expectation. He bought in to the process and always gave his all. Can’t thank you enough for a great senior season and a coaching experience that was priceless. Never stop being you Washington!
Say what you want about us. What a season. 8-2 with my brothers. Love everyone that showed support to us throughout the season.

God’s favor is on my side, I could never lose. 25 was a year of growth during a time of uncertainty. 2️⃣6️⃣ is the year to go get it! Thank you all for the birthday wishes yesterday. I’m truly blessed with amazing people 🙏🏾

. There is so much hidden talent in this area that just need an opportunity. Proud of the young student-athletes in my city! 📈
Overwhelmed by how well the tryout went last night. 5 different age groups and each one displayed high levels of talent and competitiveness. A special thank you to all the high school coaches who showed up to support and help run drills. The time is now to

The only SAC Champ that still in the running is the Carroll Chargers who had no problem whatsoever with Warsaw last night. Carroll is scary good. I love how that defense flies around making turnovers and Jeff Becker making explosive plays left and right on O. Big test next week!
Almost brought tears to my eyes watching my former player
@hale_sir
transition into a coaching role last night. He took complete control of warmups and running DB drills and coaching guys up in competitive. A true LEADER who I trust with my life 🤞🏾
I wonder if the lady from Fairfield that screamed “Eastside’s gonna kick your ass” to Luers players after the Knights beat the Falcons 49-10 last year will be in attendance tonight at Shields Field 😭😭
Let me tell you how good God is. Just yesterday Mariah and I talked about how 2020 was a year of growth for us both and that 2021 would be our “year”. Woke up this morning to her first acceptance into Medical School and I couldn’t be more proud!! 🙏🏾❤️
#ItsUp
Beauty 😍 Brains 🧠 & Ambition ✨ I can’t even begin to say how proud I am of you and how much I love supporting you every step of the way as you do with me. Your dream was to get accepted into IUSM and you did just that. The work starts now baby, CONGRATULATIONS ❤️
@MThomas_03
And can’t forget my other son
@AntwianLake
another former player of mine who consistently gives back to the youth leading and teaching the game. This is how you pay it forward. Very proud to have watched him grow into a fine young man! Still 🗑 tho 😭🖤
Today, Fort Wayne UNITED was proud to welcome back the Friday Tie Day mentoring program.
The program connects community leaders with young minority students from

Coach Matt Lindsay was effortlessly funny, but the funniest thing I ever heard him say was “Big Cat, I’ve got more rings than you got braids” 🤣🤣 I’m grateful to have been apart of 3 of those 9 blue rings! Congratulations to a

beat Andrean and tonight is the night it happens again! Very excited for this group of Knights and the opportunity to compete for yet another semi-state championship. You make us all very proud! Good luck, God bless.

Bishop Luers is now 3-0 for the first time in 10 years.
In 2011, the Knights went 14-0, won the SAC and captured a Class 2A title with a 41-17 rout of Mater Dei in the state championship game.
No pressure,

This is what investing in the GRIND looks like!!! My young DBs/LB got to see their brothers in action at the next level and get some free game on the “PROCESS”. These two exemplify not cheating the process and betting on themselves! So proud of these young men! 🖤🤞🏾
Finalizing a game plan with complete confidence. No second guesses. No doubts. Everyone has a job to do, both coaches and players. Let’s get to work men!
#GoDogs
I think coaches sometimes get too caught up with what they’re doing schematically that it diminishes the value of the actual playmaking ability of the player. Make no mistake about it, it’s the players out there making big plays, not the coach‼️💯
This one hit different. Definition of the PROCESS!! We knew this day would come and many more to come. The work continues, I’m proud of you brotha 👏🏾🙏🏾
It was never just about football. It was about proving people wrong who counted you out. As someone viewed as “undersized” I can relate to that narrative very well. It’s the fuel that keeps you going. I’m incredibly proud of you Barnes. You will do great things!

2nd holiday 5v5 tournament, the New Year’s Cup was a success! High school athletes from around the area came out to showcase their talents in the form of 5v5 football.

and took some time to be in the present and things somehow came together. Slowly getting better with my response 🧘🏾♂️💆🏾♂️
Give God praise for your joy and your pain. While you’re at peace and during the struggle. The devil will try to trick you into believing there is no end to your suffering, BUT GOD has a way out for every one of us. You haven’t even seen what your best looks like yet! 🙌🏾

Drayk Bowen is a 5⭐️, Indiana Gatorade Player of the Year with an insane stat line as a junior, and his most impressive stat to me is his 4.11 gpa. STUDENT-athletes take notes 📝
2 CHAMPIONSHIPS, 2 RUNNER-UPS, 1 SEMI-FINALIST in all 5 age divisions. We take pride in growing every one of our athletes’ skill set and football knowledge. The dog is just sold separate. Congratulations to our 12u & 14u boys taking care of business over the weekend!!
Athletes have to understand that everyone is not on the same journey as you. If it’s not helping your craft, it’s hurting it. Get rid of the unnecessary baggage that’s holding you back from being GREAT‼️

It was never about the ⭐️’s, but damn I’m proud. Keeps his head down, goes to work and constantly learn as a student. Stars don’t define a player, but sometimes you just have to wake em up! Keep growing 📈🤝🏾
A good teacher will teach you everything they know. A great teacher will not only teach you everything they know, but also understands they will always be a student as well. ♻️
