Travis Grayson = Mr. Basketball
Not a guy in the state does more for his team than Travis! He’s a senior leader, he makes plays on both ends, and he’s a Dog! Point, blank period!

I am a Young Black Man in America. I coach and mentor many young African American teens and my prayer is that we can be treated equally and with same respect as others. No one should be treated unfairly because of skin color. Let’s bind together In prayer and support! ✊🏾
Some great experiences for me this year already :
1. Married my Bestfriend
2. Coached in TBT for 2 straight year
3. Got back coaching on AAU Circuit with an amazing group

@Sash_Stefanovic

6”6 SG Preston Saia going 28/31 from 3 after practice and ending with some step backs & sidesteps to create space!
I haven’t seen many 🏴☠️’s that shoot with this consistency since Josh Mayo (UIC) & Jonah Jackson (Drake)
I’ve coached/trained a total of 11 hours of basketball today. 2 more hours to go. It’s my passion, it’s my ministry and it’s what I was called to do! 🙏🏾✊🏾🏀
Before my seniors took the floor for the State Tournament I left them with these 6 Life lessons 🙏🏾✊🏾 I’m so proud of what they’ve done for the program

#Seahawks
safety Ryan Neal just got called off the practice squad. He thought about quitting football, thinking there was no future for him in the NFL. Today, he had the interception that sealed the game for Seattle.
Dear Basketball,
Awesome moment captured of 6”3 ‘21 G Keon Thompson after our Sectional Title! Kid gives it all on the court and has a true passion and love for the game! 🙏🏾

All the forces in Hell can’t stop what God has for you when you give your life over to him. God’s will doesn’t exempt you from Trails and Tribulations, staying in his will assures you the peace and faith that you will get through them all! 🙏🏾
When you love what you do and are truly in it for the right reason no matter what people say you keep pushing! Building men on and off the court! Being an Godly African American Example to them and pushing them outside of their comfort zone!
