Maybe start a church up there."</P> <P>David believes that hard work and determination is the key to being successful. "You must also have a love of what you are doing," said David. "Having people around you that care and that can teach you is also important in being successful. Have the heart to do your best and whatever you do, go all out. My dad says to do it 110 percent."&nbsp;</P> <P>David has unusual values. For example, in his freshman year in high school, he had an "F" grade half way through the term in one class. One of his friends who was in the same situation got out and got a different teacher. His friend got a "B" but David stuck it out and took his "F" grade. David does not believe in quitting anything. Last year he made it up and got an "A" grade.&nbsp;</P> <P>Peer pressure is tough for most people including David. "When I was in Poplar Bluff," said David, "there wasn't a whole lot to do, so a lot of kids used alcohol. Up here at Hazelwood East, it was easier. I have always thought it was stupid to get involved in alcohol or drugs. It's like putting a gun to your face. I ended up getting a girlfriend who was morally, academically and spiritually squared away. When we went out, we studied and had fun without drugs or alcohol. I won't have it - being around people who drink.&nbsp;</P> <P>"I have never hadt his defensive end position. At 6-7 265 with his speed and quickness, Paul is a force that is hard to handle.  But I m not big on awards, assertedPaul.  The team is more important.<br> I believe the secret of our success is that the coaches recruit well. We give a lot of athletes a chance. Some of my teammates come from poverty or a poor background. Marshall provides an opportunity to grow up and mature. I started out not going to class but then I changed. I had reconstructive knee surgery because of an injury during the second game of the 1998 season. I thought,  Man, I m only one play away from never playing again. It made me realize that I ha better go to class, get my grades and graduate. I know now that I m not invincible . . . no one is. <br>Paul has developed some strong convictions as a result of his experiences at Marshall.  Give it all you got in he classroom, advises Paul.  Anything you put your name on make sure it s quality. If you make a mistake, people will judge you on that. Find a role model. Mine is my dad. I have the utmost respect for him. He came to this country when he was 15 in poverty and no education. I have four sisters. One died but the other three have graduated from college or will graduate.<br> My family is the most important thing in my life. I like to surround myself with people who really care for me. I have about three friends here at Marshall that I d trust with my life. You can have all the money in the world but it doesn t mean anything if you don t have friends.<br> Every time I come into the weight room or on the practice field, I want to get better evryday. I look at myself at the end of a workout or practice and the goal is to always get better. <br>Doug Hodges is from Miami, Florida and attended Southwest Miami High School. sion 2 High School State Championships this year, a competition in which they placed fourth last year. This would be an especially impressive accomplishment since this competition pits 45 schools against each other.
