He even got to wondering how a Be An Eleven seminar might have changed his own life.  Although I have always wanted to do well, I actually didn't know what I wanted to do until I was well past high school. When I graduated from high school I joined the military, and ended up staying 22 years. I think that if I'd had something like the Be An Eleven program when I was younger, it might have changed some of the things I did. <br>One of the highlights of the Be An Eleven presentation was the response to Coach Sellers' words on how drugs influence young people.  Jeff did a good job of bringing across how drugs can take away from not only your athletic abilities but also your academic abilities. During that part of the presentation a parent stood up and applauded, and soon just about everybody in the whole place stood up and clapped. <br>Although the Be an Eleven seminar has been over for months, Nathan says that the positive effects haven't diminished.  I've gone to pre-game meals with the kids and watched them at Blue Jays' practice, and someone will always say something along the lines of, 'Let's think about being an Eleven, let's keep this energy going!' and it charges the kids right back up. <br>And that is music to a Blue Jay's ears.t in her students memory due in part to their physical and mental workouts, but Young added that group tasks such as memorizing poetry contributes to a sense of teamwork among the students.<br><br>The overall results are striking, Young said,  I can see them all getting so much more self-confident, she said.  They all feel so much better about themselves, particularly the older girls, who have worked so hard for three-and-a-half years. It s sometimes just the little things that they now pay attention to, like the changes in their nutritional habits. A couple of cheerleaders stopped one day and said,  See Mrs. Young, we re drinking juice and not Dr. Pepper or Coke.  <br><br>Most of the girls list  getting in shape,  improving in their sport, and  losing weight as their primary reasons for taking BFS, but they also acknowledge the other benefits they ve received from Young s class.<br><br> We re learning about bones and muscles and stuff, said Amanda McCoy, who s been in BFS since the second semester of her freshman year. A senior who plays softball and basketball, McCoy said she believes that memorizing and writing poetry is paying off in other areas of her schoolwork and athletic career.  It helps me remember, she said,  and helps me concentrate. <br><br>Junior Amanda Waldroop, a cross country runner, sees another benefit to the poetry.<br><br> Sometimes, when I m not feeling good, I remember a sentence from a poem that makes me feel better. <br><br>Junior Penny Thompson, who plays softball, volleyball and basketball, admits she doesn t particularly like having to memorize poems, but said,  They do give us a lot of good messages. <br><br>And
