Thankful AND Excited.
Those two words sum it up for me.
Thankful to have been a part of the OR Program for 7 years. Thankful to take this next step as the Head Coach at Karns High. A place & community I love. And I’m excited to get to work. 💙🦫🏀
Meet the new coach.
Lauren Trent is the new head girls basketball coach at Karns High School, a place and community with which she is quite familiar.

It’s
@DannyTKCS
’s birthday today!!! He’s the best of the best at everything he does so make sure to wish him a happy birthday!! We love you, Dad!!! 🥳💙
Right over my shoulder sits my Dad(
@DannyTKCS
). I’ve learned to not take that for granted over this last year.
After all these years, he’s the face (along with my mom) I find in the stands before tip off and in so many ways he’s still my coach.
#DoYourBest
Happy Father’s Day to the man who does it all for everyone.
After all these years, his face is the one I find in the stands before my games because he’s always there.

Love you so much,
@DannyTKCS

My dad taught me a long time ago when it came to Education, you always do what’s best for kids. The Turnaround Breakfast to celebrate kids with parents in the audience is just one example of that.
#TheKarnsWay
A man asked me today when was the last time the Karns Lady Beavers were competitive. I referred him to
@rachaelcabbage
. He then said how impressive it was for a “rookie” head coach to make such a difference in such a short period of time. I agreed with him.
@LTrent5
So proud!
I love being a teacher; I have missed being a teacher.
Y’all, I’m so ready for kids to be sitting in these desks. Praying I know & love them well through the craziness this year may bring. 💙💛

He’s also the Dad that stops by to check on my toughest students when I am at training 💙
Happy Father’s Day
@DannyTKCS
!!
He’s taught me you look at a challenges and attack them, set the standards high but know when to encourage, you take care of your people, and you lead people well by serving them. He does these things daily. I’m just thankful to call him Dad!
I hope people can see the growth that has happened in the last 6 months with these girls. Tonight was just another example!
I’m so proud to be their coach! 🦫💙🏀
I love these 5 girls!

The growth of these 13 girls over the last few months has been fun to watch. They became resilient, began to play together, learned to pay attention to details, and fought to win.
Proud of these District Champs ❤️🐾🏀
Happy 3️⃣0️⃣th anniversary to these two wonderful parents!!! We are so thankful for them everyday!!! It’s safe to say all that’s changed in 30 years is the hair color & hair style.
The lady in the middle is Tennessee State Teacher of the Year!!!! She works her tail off, and her heart for kids is just unbelievable!!!
We are SO pumped for you, Kami!!! You are so deserving. 💙💛
It’s Senior Night at OR tonight 🐾❤️🏀

I remember
@Jaycabb11
as this scrawny, high energy, buzzed cut 7th grader…and then I was lucky enough to get a front row seat his Senior season.
Today, he signed to play basketball at Cleveland State. I’m proud of you, Jay! Go be great.
The Lady Wildcats season comes to a close tonight here at Bearden as Maryville defeats Oak Ridge, 71-67. I personally would like to thank seniors Bri Dunbar, Selena Pettus, Raja Eckles and Taliah Davis for all the great memories these past four years. Your futures are bright.
Happy Father’s Day to the man who taught me how to love baseball, how to find my way around a big city, how to always put kids first when it came to education, how to lead others, and how to never back down from a challenge. I love you!
This lady turned 60 today!!! She is our favorite lady and the rock of our family...on top of the being the most joyful. We are so thankful for her life!!
Happy Birthday, Mom! I love you!! 🥳
These two young ladies have been through a lot with their program. They continued to show up everyday and work. Now they’re reaping the rewards!
