WE CONGRATULATE: Collins’ return...

Collins High School is returning to the Class AAAA Kentucky football championship game, and we heartily commend the Titans for that accomplishment.

Never to our knowledge has any athletic team from the county competed for back-to-back titles. Shelby County’s girls’ golf team certainly has contended in an open tournament, and Caterina and Gabby Karas have brought great individual honor by winning four consecutive state cross-country titles for Collins.
