  • Karas sisters finish 1,2 but Titans take 2nd

    It was only fitting that Collins’ sister act of Gabby and Caterina Karas took the top two spots in Saturday’s inaugural Titan Classic.

    Gabby Karas, a seventh-grader, won the race while her older sister, senior Caterina, finished second to lead the Collins girls’ cross country team to a second-place finish in the event that was held at Shelby County’s course (the same one that will be used for the Nov. 5 Class 2A, Region 3 meet).

    A season that started with promise came to an abrupt end Monday night.

  • Titans quickly take care of Rockets

    The Collins boys' soccer team struck early, and often, Thursday night.

    The Titans tallied three goals in the first 13 minutes on their way to a 6-0 shutout of cross-town rival Shelby County at the Rockets’ Athletic Complex.

    Collins beat Shelby County 3-0 in the season-opener for both teams on Aug. 16. In that match the Titans led 2-0 at halftime, but couldn’t quite run away from the Rockets.

    It was a different story this time around.
