In 2014, Coach Harden arrived in Frisco and taught/coached at Independence HS for 3 years. He left for a brief time, teaching and coaching at Bowie HS but has returned to Frisco ISD and is excited to be a part of the CHS Titan Baseball family.
Overall, Coach Harden has been teaching/coaching for 15 years. I coach to influence athletes with a futuristic mindset. I want to impact their thought processes with the hope of making them the most successful individuals they can be and someone who will be self-confident for the rest of their lives. My wife (Kristy) and I have been married for 14 years, we have three boys Carter, Caleb, and Cannon. We enjoy playing all sports, hunting, camping, and being in the outdoors.
