Coach Grady enthusiastically stated,  their improvement carried over to the playing field as we went 10-1 this year. We won the Vermont Division I league title and the Vermont Division I State Championship. We also placed 9 players on the 1st team Division I All-State and 2 more on the 2nd team. The outstanding gains they attained in the off-season, and continued with throughout the in-season, elevated them to a level in which they were able to beat schools with 7 times their enrollment. Their desire to be the best coupled with their immense dedication to accomplish their goals made their dreams a reality. <br>Coach Grady and his team plan to continue on the new path in which they started last year and have set high hopes for the future. They are not going to slow down one step. They know that, even though they won the state championship, they are still only just beginning. To BFS, Coach Grady thanked,  we at MSJ believe that your program was a major reason for our success these past couple of years. BFS is a program that we will continue in the future, because it shows results. As they continue with the program, in-season and off, they know that they will grow and improve even more; that a winning dynasty has been born. y spine. I have no side effects, none. It s amazing. Sometimes I forget the whole accident happened. <br>Pressed on the subject, she admits to some weakness in the right leg.  I need to compensate with the left, she says,  but I m working on fixing hat in the run. It doesn t stop me, but it is a technical point I need to work on. <br>Christi attained her present height and weight of 5-foot-3 and 130 pounds early, and gymnastics gave way to track and the pole vault. She began working at Wichita Extreme Athletics with brothers Randy and Darrin Bryant. The center works with dance, tumbling and cheerleading, but because both brothers vaulted in high school, they also coached vaulters. Randy has been to two Olympics and coached in Australia and Mexico. The two trainers are highly technical in their approach, and they believe that Christi has the raw talent and drive to make her mark in the vault.<br>Christi s best vault at press time was 12.1 feet. She feels that won t stand for long as she enters her senior year. With her scholastic achievements, she s confident she ll receive ascholarship in the vault or in basketball. She s spent the summer working hard on both, at the academy with drils, tramoline, push-ups, the hig bar and speed drills. At the local rec center she s been able to maintain a three-times-per-week strength-training schedule where her training weight on the bench is 135 and her squat is 180. Power cleans complete her core lifts.<br>Back to school means back to the gym with her coaches for a more aggressive approach. The lifting that sped her recovery and brought her back to the competitive athltic field is first on her list to win her that ticket to a good college and vaulting coach.<br> Gymnastics was my first love, but as I got older and with the accident I grew out of it, says Christi.  The pole vault is what I want to do in college, but some day I d love to coach gymnastics. <br>Considering colleges, Christi isn t looking at location as much as coaches.  I feel the coach is the most important. I want a coach who knows the vault, and a school that alo has a good track program. I wouldn t mind moving away, but I know it will be tough.<br> I m thankful for everything my parents and the community have done for me. I have a real support system here, with my church and friends. I m very lucky and very grateful, and hope that luck carries on when I move on. <br>Perhaps it s due even more to sheer guts than to luck, but
