Tyler Franklin, MHS Strength Coach and the 2023 National High School Strength Conditioning Association KY Coach of the Year, is pictured with his MHS Class and Angela Thomas, (center) Nurse Administrator Calloway County Health Department. Thomas assisted Franklin in funding two new Racks in the Weight/Conditioning Room.
Thomas who serves on the Healthy People Active Communities Board, said she knew after meeting with Franklin the new addition was needed for students.
“She’s a blessing and worked hard to fund this addition for our weight room,” Franklin said. “We can’t thank her enough.”
Since becoming strength coach at Murray High, Tyler has started a morning class for students who aren’t able to take his class, as well as middle school athletes.
After applying for grants and hosting fundraisers, Franklin has added timing laser systems for sprints, a jump mat to measure vertical jumps, nine new trap bars, nine new safety squat bars, heavier dumbbells from 55-100, 100 resistance bands, 20 med balls, four sleds, and two new squat racks. #murrayschools
