Written Thursday June 15th at 10:20 AM

The Colts will have a new girls basketball coach this winter.

According to Stephen Bell from Bank Hoops and another very accurate source, the Troy Girls Varsity Basketball job was open which means that Coach Julius Porter had stepped down at Troy. 

Porter was 24-27 in his three years at Troy. He led the Colts to the State Quarterfinals in 2021-2022 with a 13-12 record. He gave them their first district crown in a long while along with their first regional crown.

Prior to coming to Troy, Porter was an assistant coach at Clarkston for the boys basketball program under legendary coach Dan Fife.

Whoever the new coach will be has a pretty good lineup with a ton of proven young talent in Reagan Zeiter, Carly Higginbottom, Olivia Sprangler, and Diamond Prince coming back.

They will be in the Blue with Southfield Arts and Tech, Berkley, Adams, Troy Athens, and Farmington this winter.
