The Panthers stunned the defending State Champion, Topeka Hayden, with a 27-14 victory in the 4-A bi-district game. Tailback, Josh Williams, despite playing with a broken bone in his right hand, carried the ball 34 times for 254 yards. Culwell praised,  That was a great effort. He is a true warrior. Next came a big game against unbeaten 10-0 Kingman. The Panthers demolished them easily with a 16-0 shutout victory. This advanced them into the semi-finals of the State Playoffs for the first time in history. Things were getting heated up and the Panthers were on a roll. They barely beat Wellington 16-14 for a shot to play for state crown. <br>The State Championship game against 12-0 undefeated Holton, was Concordia's final test to see if they had what it took to wear the number one crown in the state. They faced number one ranked Holton who had outscored its three opponents in the playoffs earlier this season with a combined score of 128-20. Senior linebacker/fullback, John Hake reports,  I think that is one of our greatest weapons. We don't ever get intimidated. The Panthers played with fury. Dreams and goals were on the verge of becoming a reality. <br>The 6-2, 190 pounder Josh Williams, was the workhorse for Concordia. He had 31 carries for n was competing for the Utah State Powerlifting Team. Recalls Dan,  It was about two in the morning during the deadlift competition, and I was sitting around in the warm-up room when Greg came up to me and asked me what I was opening wit. I said I was starting light at 573 pounds, just to get a mark, and I think it almost knocked Greg down. After that we kept bumping into each other at competitions, and then I started working out at the Upper Limit Gym when it opene up. hat was a great place to work out because the Utah Jazz trained there, and Greg and his BFS staff made certain they took their lifting seriously. One day when I was working out Greg asked me if I wanted to work at the gym, and I accepted. That started my relationship with BFS. <br>If there s one major struggle Dan has had as an athlete, it s with his bodyweight. In college it was as high as 272, which Dan says was pretty solid because he was lifting hard. Dan was able to lean down after college; he quit training from 1981 to 1987 to concentrate on his career. When he got back into training he allowed his bodyweight to go up again, and by 1995 he accepted the fact that he was fat and had to do smething about it. <br>To get lean, Dan went on a low-carb, high-protein diet. Dan s description of a good breakfast:  meat, eggs and other stuff. A bad breakfast:  not meat, eggs, and other stuff. In a few months he dropped 50 pounds.  It s funny, I got down to 206, and I found that I could throw the discus just as far as I did when I was heavier  and my injuries disappeared. <br><br>The State of the Sport<br><br>Although Dan says the US stils9rr&YS>!2Hb槨$ [t"n(aL-86g̠6c{e4QJڭ~G@l'3)w{\Luy%mB %|c2h^);r6#Ȅn/b|=K4ϗ,܎2;OAINxzBXZ"o(4 li@y1ٔL32&ED##I8G.==aO B[T{XI=`#v큵ڤG;PL3@ɒwBuIo0$>_V*X" 1P>8L~B^ ֿ?O £ l2T/Ꟙ |w:}?&u=񢷗Fz֕Lyf湴y\# FANTD]tA*dڤס5 v2A%C) "FqEN~ɧ\RŋƱWv 8OdMc|\B{c%V4GuD9es weuZo{20R*|ccc-1qxgFoY#`Uh0Q~Yx'ܺF?#d %W&EY680@PJ}>[u=}䧦5͔DAS'lA@i9qj]2oՏqSH&Cbz`pӡ۱jڟ/׉zWs#]Y76H;u؎Eݿ%Yp?V)uOMx6qWX?W*3 "bH=*ܖH,n? ׍vQq:)jޭCrG)\\(;tOv̌Rj*MC+1W(:&57S#vAyV ^j+p!x"H$(Gsڞ9~GVuOO&06mrvh=)wx3XP yb{KR4_ކ +['|r%g3&#ݎn~DmTAxBOȨkrPnF;} gTjW'ijp)X MGb>#Nqf€E.]>ZWӇČ*'?F4ItB8~X;R$Q
