"It gives them something else to look forward to; instead of just lifting weights for football, now they're lifting for some type of competition."<br> Like most successful coaches, Stanford stresses the importance of teamwork and sharing the credit for every win with every player. However, he is proud of the fact that several players are considered candidates for scholarships. "We've got two players I know are going to be recruited heavily: Michael Goss, a wide receiver and running back; and Emmitt Ellis, a defensive end."<br>Weighing 185, Goss benches 320, squats 385, deadlifts 485 and runs a 4.5 forty. Last year he caught 34 passes for 1,004 yards, scored 17 touchdowns, and rushed 30 times for 420 yards. "Michael is probably the best athlete in the school. He also plays baseball, and probably will be drafted by the major leagues after his senior year."<br>Weighing 260, Ellis benches 340, squats 450, power cleans 250, runs a 5.2 forty, and last year was responsible for 102 tackles. "Emmitt uses his hands probably as good as anybody I've ever seen. He also has good upper body strength on the field. He works hard in the weightroom, but he's definitely got a lot of natural ability."<br>Also of note in the weightroom is defensive tackle Elliot Carter, their strongest player according to Stanford. At 5-foot-ten and 250 pounds, Carter benches 360, squats 500 and deadlifts 485.<br><br>Continuing the Tradition<br><br>If there's one thing Stanford would change about his weight program, it is the size of his weightroom. "I don't think you can ever have a big-enough weightroom--no matter what you build, sooner or later it's too small. We've got a 3,000 square foot weightroom, but we work out every day and we have 60 kids at one time, sometimes as many as 80." <br>For its athletes, the school has weight training classes as part of the curriculum. "We're spending maybe a week or two every nine-week period to introduce the kids to the weights and what they can do."<br>With his panoramic view of the team over the past 13 years, does Stanford think the athletes have changed much? "They've changed over the years, but still they're looking for discipline. If you discipline a player and treat him right, he'll usually do whatever you want." As for his advice to other coaches, Stanford says, "You've got to love kids because you're going to be around them all the time."<br>Has Tony Stanford finally settled down? "I've got 22 years in," says Stanford. "I'm not going to coach forever, but I'm happy where I am and I'm pleased with what we're doing. When I do retire, I'll finish here at Louisville."Kearney is talking about occurred during the Challenge of Champions Race held on June 1, 1997. In this special event in which superstar athletes were pitted in one-on-one competitions, a primed Freeman faced reigning Olympic champion Ludmila Engquist ofSweden. Freeman had an explosive start, and at sixty meters it seemed she would win easily by several steps. But as the race progressed, her technique faltered, and this allowed Engquist to overtake her in the last 30 meters to win 12.82 to Freeman's 12.96. <br>In addition to losing ground to technique, Freman had been finding it difficult to stay healthy. Coach Kearney remarks,  The hurdles are an extremely violent event in terms of the demands it makes on the body, more so than straight sprints." In fact, so stressful are the hurdles that t one competition Freeman hit the siZMb~׿tG\Ӛ&pCNb@{[ %_Z WpўqN2dcpc69\?3@A=Yv)ۣ񹀫FAAWLz5CVNd[oA4.^hF2)]PW[_16zfpbO#Q{[[0i %m5ݐ\ :D5b%#`~,Q*e-vTAL 5`XRWChP&{QH'R ֫_%vAU>#
