Coach Vena will use Jim Brown s efforts to generate a greater desire within the athletes to improve physically and raise student involvement in the weight training program by challenging the athletes to break personal records and recognize their success.  We would like to evolve into model programs such as the ones at Poplar Bluff Junior and Senior High Schools, says Coach Vena. <br>Closer to home, Rising Starr Middle School and Starr s Mill High School provide excellent examples of model programs. The Starr s Mill program was in place and running before they had a school facilitychampionship game ever played in Louisiana.&nbsp; It was a hard fought, well played, well coached game that ended in a dramatic fashion with Evangel winning 28-27.&nbsp; USA TODAY ranked the Eagles #20 in its final 1996 poll.&nbsp; Our dream had become a reality.&nbsp; The Evangel Eagles believe in Bigger Faster Stronger!</P> <P><STRONG>Editor's Note: </STRONG>The Evangel Clinic was one of the most rewarding clinics I have ever done.&nbsp; The athletes were totally responsive to every phase of the BFS program.&nbsp; Theywere amazingly focused.&nbsp; The entire coaching staff was present and remained intensely enthusiastic throughout the day. </P> <P>I stayed with the Booty's and that was inspiring.&nbsp; Their son Josh Booty was there and I saw all of his awards like the USA TODAY Fotball and Baseball Player of the Year awards.&nbsp; Little brother Abram was to be a senior.&nbsp; He proved to be a mature leader as the clinic progressed.&nbsp; It didn't take long to see that he was a blue chipper.&nbsp; Abram ran a 4.4 forty from a stand and had a 38-inch no-step vertical jump.&nbsp; Perhaps most impressive was their father, John Booty who doubles as an assistant football coach and a powerful, dynamic minister.&nbsp; His wife Sonja stated, "John gave up everything to go into the ministry.&nbsp; He could have been a professional football player.&nbsp; I truly believe with all my heart that our sons success in athletics is God's way of honoring him."&nbsp; After being with the Evangel and Booty family, I too believe that. </P> <P>Coach Dennis Dunn has assembled a staff in which any one of them could be a great head coach.&nbsp; The athletic director, Deny Duron, was an All-America QB at Louisiana Tech.&nbsp; He also coaches football and supports the BFS program for all sports.&nbsp; I was so impressed with the passion and love each coach had in working with the Evangel kids.&nbsp; Each coach spiritually ministers to the players.&nbsp; I know first hand they have saved many kids that might otherwise be in gangs, drugs, or in jail.&nbsp; The coaching staff does a better job off the field than they do on the field and they went 15-0.</P> <P>Coach Dunn offers his players opportunities for leadership and service.&nbsp; Phillip Deas, the Evangel quarterback, is a straight-A student who has spoken at nursing homes and in prisons.&nbsp; Coach Dunn stated, "Phillip is an outstanding preacher.&nbsp; Our team and our players feel they are doing God's work.&nbsp; They feel they are ministers of His word."</P> <P>My wife and I were priviledged to be on the SèZ3bkLmdX_DU._2g&P*/w*Tu]M8~d"ͷb&˛31c<$r@6EAl~< ѻG&TIxH20,.^??PY<u{ 32-C  #N$(T>W}-G1͕4dgȪNbҍI7/jӋp78>❨q3ZS;z`U+T@3$`"qM i;9 ^RW#sv;`>늮#q#ޛY!M⫛+qF뉶9Sm̴,xኺIkGz"bb|@p=U2ԳWjl0IЩ t޻J=mɍH;wr?zZ,dՏOŴN]"G[I%7Ŏs'$i?]y9 k9ɥżBul#oWն h4p+Twr/ЈK򅎙>uXWKg2),@JQᇞg?OLE@kJG*ęw5f-;f}2\gn8PM<l0%(E~/uև ˅AqMo <,v4`rsbO]|ݨBz:>P8늁Z:A]u;0+mNxU9l3׽x..4eږÓ}y +\E MU"W8~r'lUx}iLG7gI?: ٪{v'"& ܤU~ $ qjrB&OS4-[ G$e# "풣v"ӷl׆#) 4닦ADBHX#w8awۿqzPT~*9h:吔"y[qr&cm>wJ?}9?U ?$|lU$*2잔~yL?ke OH|]*Kgg)!XMxti$U1J#+89n=4`|0S " qZ2W/? @;Cޛd=QaŖ;W.f۠h&8 Mt5Eqv9 iT{~8?;7K:ħHҟсr;}4䷶J9=|ˣt~N^eHK Ƞ$o[!>Flœgz׽ٚIXT֛ :,."٣uGmԵ#m s؊fm%kV1v¶qRi{`e]ߋap=qf^XבpE;H#a7 ðFKUn
