Head Coach, Lee's Summit High School. I believe in the extra pass, second cuts, early help, that the game was meant to be played 94 ft, GBABC and THE TEAM.

I cannot know what is like to grow up black in America. I have never been pulled over for driving while black or had to worry that my son could end up in the street like George Floyd or Trayvon Martin. I worry about my players who I love like sons and for their families.

Great win tonight on Senior night. When I got hired they were going into 4th grade. I knew they had great potential but had no idea what they would mean to me. As a coach you think you are giving to the kids but it’s what they give you that brings you back. #THETEAM

It’s the end of year 21 for me in education. It’s been a challenging year, full of moves, changes, and loss. Still, when I walk out of my room today I am reminded that I love what I do, the people I work with, and the students who fill the halls and classrooms at LSHS.

Kansas City lost a giant today. There has been no greater ambassador for the game of basketball then Coach Holley. His impact cannot be understated or his reach over sold.

Congrats @DrewLock23 on setting the MU and SEC records for TD passes in a season. Throwing touchdowns might be the only thing you have done more beautifully than shoot the three. Either way you’ve always gone deep.
