$AMZN

A lot of requests for me to cover Amazon as it continues to underperform the rest of the Mag 7's.

Here's exactly when you should be buying $AMZN moving forward.

Let's get rich together. 💪

@KYPCoachCann is one of the best coaches in our state. Picked 6th in the preseason region predictions, he has Mercy playing at a completely different level in the postseason. #respect

[Jason Frakes @kyhighs]

Mercy was 8-12 when head coach Nick Cann came to a realization: "I wasn't having fun." Here's how Cann and the Jaguars - 11-2 over their past 13 games - turned things around and clinched a spot in the Sweet 16: https://t.co/h6tjQjWl2B

For the first time since @CoachLZ was at Oldham Co, someone has won the 8th Region Player of the Year award 3 years in a row. Congratulations @LaineyJohnson18.

#teamAC

[Clay Birdwhistell @ACCoachBird]

Congratulations to @LaineyJohnson18 as she passed Makenzie Cann to move into 2nd place all-time in scoring. #teamAC

[Clay Birdwhistell @ACCoachBird]

Today, @LaineyJohnson18 crossed the 2,000 point mark for her career. She is one of the best scorers our school has ever produced. #LJ2K

[Clay Birdwhistell @ACCoachBird]

We got to see @JacieChesser tonight, who starts for Midway University, coached by @Kylee_Gorby. She had a short night with 7 points in 14 minutes, as Midway cruised to a 84-44 win. Jacie is one of the toughest kids I’ve ever coached. We are so proud of her.

Sophie Smith's 18 assists tonight for the Tigers broke the school single-game record owned since 1981-82 by Janie Howard, set against Cumberlands.

[GC Athletics - #TigerPride @GCAthletics]

Congratulations to our very own #2 Sophie Smith on her New School Record of 18 assists in a single game! #TigerPride

[Clay Birdwhistell @ACCoachBird]

We took the whole crew to watch @smith_sophie2 play for Georgetown College tonight. She broke the single-game school record with 18 assists! She’s one of the most hard working and competitive kids we’ve had. We are so proud of you Soph.

[Clay Birdwhistell @ACCoachBird]

We are so proud of our #31! Throughout this process, she has searched for the right fit for the things she valued. Not surprised to see her drawn to @LTB_CU . Thankfully, we still have Lainey another year, but some people are gonna find out #31 is a problem.

[Lainey Johnson @LaineyJohnson18]

I’m excited to announce I’m continuing my athletic and academic career at Campbellsville University. I want to thank God, my coaches, and my teammates for always being there.
