Indiana high school basketball is pretty special. Borden and Eastern (Pekin) are only 6 miles away from each other. One playing in the 1A state championship, the other in 2A. Borden gave Eastern fans red towels and Eastern gave Borden fan purple towels. Cool stuff!! #ihsaa

I never met Wes Rucker but felt like I knew him. He was my go-to for in-game analysis when I couldn’t get to a TV to watch the Vols and sometimes even while I was watching. He was thorough and honest in reporting what he was seeing on the court or on the field—good or bad. He was also very open about his love and devotion to his family. I’m praying for all of them.
I’ve got the lights tonight, @wesruckerTBA ❤️

R.I.P. John Shirreffs, trainer of 2005 @KentuckyDerby winner Giacomo. Also, saddled Hall of Fame mare Zenyatta to a second place finish in 2010 Breeders' Cup Classic and Baeza to a third place finish in last year's Derby @ChurchillDowns. A true horseman and class act. He was 80.
Sad news from California - John Shirreffs, who trained the incredibly popular mare Zenyatta and won the 2005 Kentucky Derby with Giamoco - died in his sleep on Thursday, his friends and family said. A report will appear on DRF.com later this afternoon. #drf
