Lee Westwood– He is 37 (turns 38 on April 24) – who began this calendar year as the No. 1 player in the world - finished second in both the Masters and British Open in 2010. Westwood, who has won two events on the PGA Tour and 20 on the European Tour, also tied for third at the 2009 PGA Championship and finished third at the 2008 U.S. Open. He tied for 11th at Augusta over the weekend.

It’s the Yellow-Throated Warbler’s time of the year around here.

This bird arrives from its wintering grounds in the central to southern United States very early for a warbler species in Kentucky.

In fact, you can start hearing their unique song in late March to early April.

This song is described as teeeew-teeew-teew-tew-tew-tew-twi as it runs down the scale and grows fainter and fainter, ending in an abrupt higher note.

But even if you hear this bird, don’t be surprised if you have trouble finding it in the branches.

Collins senior John Oakey describes himself as an outgoing, spontaneous person who likes to try new things.

So this spring Oakey, a long-time soccer player, decided to give tennis a try.

Despite the fact that he hadn’t picked up a racket in about four years, had never played a high school match and wasn’t completely sure of all the rules, Oakey has been a quick study thanks to his athleticism, competitiveness and his desire to learn the game – all while playing No. 1 singles for the Titans. 

The Collins baseball team suffered an 8-1 setback at Elizabethtown on Tuesday evening.

The Titans (4-2) mustered only four hits against the Panthers (6-5), who were 28-12 and lost in the 5th Region championship game last season.

Elizabethtown senior Cory Farrow struck out seven, walked only one and yielded just three hits and one earned run over five innings.

Senior Logan Hartlage relieved Farrow in the sixth to help secure the victory for the Panthers, who have won four of their past five games.
