And they did. The support and enthusiasm was at an all-time high.<br> From that point on everything we did was directed around being an eleven, recalls Davis.  We had signs in the locker room. It was just about the only talk in the weight room and the playing field. We were set on fire to be elevens! <br>If you want proof, check out what Glenelg s Gladiators accomplished following the workshop. For starters, they won the next four games making it seven games straight and qualified for the playoffs. In Glenelg s history, only three other years teams ever qualified.<br> Toward the end, we beat three teams in games that no one thought we had a snowball s chance in summer to win, recalls Davis, his voice excited with pride.  First there was Wilde Lake, then Long Reach High School. In the first round of the playoffs we played a team we had previously lost to by 22 points, Oakland Mills. This time around we beat them 14-7. We had not beaten them in nine years! All of these school s were 3-A powerhouses, where Glenelg is in the smaller 1-A classification. Further more, the upset victory over Oakland was the first post-season win in school history. What a feat! <br>Coach Davis continues,  Our JV team, coached by Jeremy Snyder, was equally motivated by the program and went undefeated this year: 10-0, and 18 and 4 as a program overall. It s the best it has ever been! <br><br>Looking Down <br>from the Sky<br><br>Not only were the spirits of the Glenelg Gladiators ignited from the workshop and the lessons learned from the tragic death of their teammate J.T., the team also received inspiration from above--itcame in the form of an airplane <br>carrying a banner reading,  Go Gladiators. Go Elevens! <br>That amazing moment came from the same parent who had volunteered to put up half the money for the seminar, the father of player Joe McDonald, who, as a graduating senior is now awaiting his appointment at West Point, along with fellow teammate, Kyle Johnston.<br> The banner was pure inspiration, says Davis.  We were in the end zone ready to start the game when it flew overhead. What a moment for the team! <br>The plane and banner showed up again for the next game, just in time to turn the score in the Gladiators favor, and again for the first game of the playoffs, which unfortunately, the Gladiators didn t win. Against their nemesis Forestville, the defending champs, Glenelg lost 20 points to 7. But they had made it to the playoffs, and that effort was pure eleven!<br><br>Where from Here?<br><br>As a fitting end to the season, Coach Davis was named the county s Coach of the Year However, a humbled Coach Davis already has his sights focussed on the new season.
