As a result, David lifted in some Olympic Lifting meets. He set three 16-year old national records as he Snatched 264 pounds and Clean and Jerked 319 pounds for a Total record of 583 pounds.<br>The following year David lifted in a U.S.P.F. Power Lifting meet in the 242-pound class. He set three national records as a 17-year old. David had a record 720 Squat, a record 430 Bench and a 690 Dead lift for a 1840-pound Total record.<br>David also excelled on the football field as he rushed for 1.420 yards and 22 touchdowns. In one game, David rushed for 308 yards. His great accomplishments earned him a starting role in the first ever New York-New Jersey All-Star game. David's best training lifts are as follows: Squat 725, Bench 445, Dead Lift 710, Power Clean 412 along with a 4.62 forty. David was also coached by Dan Geiger who is the defensive coordinator and splits strength coaching duties with Coach Dick.<br>The U.S. Weightlifting people wanted David to pursue Olympic style lifting full time but David also loves football. He made some All-State teams and accepted a scholarship at Western Kentucky. At present, David is a true freshman and carried the ball twelve times for 64 yards helping his Hilltoppers to a 49-7 opening game victory.<br>David hates the thought of steroids.  Steroids, he said,  are the way of cheaters and a way to an early death. Weights are not more important than life or a healthy life. Taking steroids just doesn't make any sense to me.<br> The same goes for drugs, alcohol or tobacco. Coach Shepard, I have never gone near drugs. I am so proud of that fact. I have never gone out and gotten drunk. I just don't understand it. I have never smoked or chewed tobacco. Those things have never appealed to me. <br>David makes sure he attends his classes everyday and is always on time. He turns his homework and quizzes in on time.  That's how I push my grades up, said David.  Big tests are tough for me so I have got to make sure my homework is done right. <br>There are two well known stories about David that are examples of his leadership. When he was an 8th grader at the end of the football season, David stood up to the varsity high school players and said,  You all need to be in the weight room to get ready for next season. Be there or you'll answer to me. <br> As a 9th grader, David saw a kid smoking in the restroom. He asked him if he knew that it was against school rules to smoke in the school. The smoker started yelling at David and pushed him. David calmly took his cigarette away and flushed it down the toilet. They are friends today and respect each other. David has the unique ability to do the right thing while getting others to respond in a positive way.<br>David believes you should always listen to your coach.  Respect everybody, David advises.  If you give your respect, you'll get respect. I know when I go out, I represent not only myself but my school, my coaches, my team, my parents and my church. If I were ever to get a black mark on my record, it would go down as a black mark on all those who I represent.<br> God gave me a talen
