The seesaw score continued, and with only 1:18 left in the game, we were behind 32-28 and on our own 15-yard line. Our offense methodically moved the ball to the 25-yard with 30 seconds to go, but we faced a fourth-and-four situation. Fortunately, a 7-yard reception by Caleb Champ kept our hopes alive, and three plays later we were in the end zone and headed to the state championship game against undefeated King City.<br>The Prize!<br><br>At the big game we scored first on a 60-yard touchdown bomb from quarterback John Weitlich to Josh Lane, and we continued playing well, enjoying a 14-12 lead going into halftime. King City wasn't about to give up, and took a two-touchdown lead heading into the fourth quarter. Just like the week before, nobody panicked. Through months of lifting we knew we could accomplish anything with our best effort. We chipped away at their lead and the defense kept them scoreless the rest of the way through the fourth quarter. With just 38 seconds remaining we put the ball into the end zone one more time and secured our victory 10-26-DeKalb's first state championship in school history!<br>The feeling gained from such a victory is indescribable. This was what we had been hoping, praying and working for all year. We worked so hard to get there, putting in countless hours in the weight room and dedicating ourselves to practice. This is the biggest accomplishment of our lives thus far. We will never forget what happened out on that field. It is a memory that will last a lifetime. .  The rest of the time they can devote to their studies or social life. I don't want to take up too much of their time. <br>Jeremy Beutler is a 6-3 260-pound senior defensive end.  I believe the Power Clean is by far the most important lift for football, says Jeremy.  My vertical jump is now 36-inches. I started out at 28 inches. In football you need explosive power.<br> When I go for a max or a big rep series, I get mean, get mad and think positive. I feed off the energy of my teammates. They cheer me on. It's the same as a football game. I enjoy the off-season and getting bigger and stronger. But the one thing I like about our football team is that we're like a very close family, a close family that strives to get the best out of each other. <br>Jeremy is a Spanish and business major. He wants to work in international business in Latin America and has already studied for three months in Mexico.<br>Tom Carder is a 6-1 215-pound inside linebacker who is a three-year starter. Tom got involved in Powerlifting at Avon Lake High School. Weighing only 205 he Benched 320, Squatted 550 and Dead Lifted 570 pounds before becoming a Bobcat. He now Power Cleans 340 from the floor and says Tom,  Cleans are my favorite lift.<br> I think, however, Squats are the most important for football because of their contribution to speed, flexibility and being injury free. Squats will have those benefits if you go low like we do. <br> I believe visualization is very important in being successful. See yourself performing perfectly first and then act on that. As far as steroids, we just don't do them. They are wrong. <br>Tom is majoring in sport science and wants to be either a football or strength coach.<br>John Kraus is a junior defensive end who is 6-2 270-pounds and went to high school in Virginia. John began lifting in the 9th grade and worked on his Power Clean form with just 75 pounds and now he can do easy sets with 340 pounds.<br>
