As a junior he played with a broken hand, and as a senior he played the championship game with a separated shoulder. <br>Chardon lost that championship game in the last 46 seconds, and during a post-game interview a reporter asked Hewitt about his Chardon teammate s fumble on the opposing team s 1-yard line. Before the reporter could finish, Hewitt interjected,  We don t make excuses at Chardon. I don t want to hear about a teammate s fumble we played our hearts out and came up one play short! By refusing to make any excuses for their loss, Hewitt showed class and character on behalf of his team.<br>At 6 1 and 215 pounds, and with a 400-pound bench press to his credit, Hewitt is certain to attract the attention of pro scouts. He says that if the opportunity to play in the NFL comes he ll take it, but he also feels confident from having his college education to rely on. As for his role models, Hewitt gives credit to Jesus and to his mother, a single parent, for raising him well. What the future holds for this no-excuses linebacker from Bowling Green, no one can say for sure. But odds are, Mitch Hewitt will continue to come out a winner.ҙh>`gg֣EFO?J?04)y&f'z~2;@ǯJ$jO0Hlӧzq9 $b8H,)؞6 =G>(>š\`䞜Pރ?J46~aEI'F3@ing in the Goodwill Games in New York, she won the bronze medal. Coach Kuusela said, "Amy is a very talented athlete that knows what she wants. Good athletes need to be able to think and understand and Amy does a good job at that. She has lots of potential with a good power level, but it is not fully converted at this point. As a young athlete still in the beginning phase of hammer throwing, she has a real shot at breaking the world record."<br>Weight training is very crucial to a thrower's success. Coach Kuusela explained, "the power clean is the most beneficial lift you can perform for the hammer throw, but remember, as a hammer thrower, she only trains with weights, to help benefit the throw."<br>So what is the key to Amy's success in the hammer throw? Many coaches and teammates claim she has great technique and I will agree to a point, but, the key comes from her great explosive power, which she has developed through training with heavy weights. Amy is the strongest female athlete I have ever met in my life. I watched her power clean 220 for 3 reps with perfect form as if it were nothing. Then we went over to the squat rack where she worked her way up to 410. She was just recovering from the flu and said she wasn't feeling that great, I can't imagine how she trains when she is feeling well and at total capacity. I was disappointed to hear from Coach Kuusela, that I had just missed watching her squat 520 for a new personal record, a few weeks ago. Since then, Amy has moved into a different training phase where she focuses on taking the brute strength that was gained from heavy weight lifting and incorporating it into throwing the 8.8 pound ball they call the hammer.<br>Amy loves to explode on the weights. Her favorite exercise is the power clean. Her best is 253 lbs.! Since her attention is focused on the hammer throw she doesn't bench press, but she has done 275 lbs.<br>Many athletes in this day and age have stumbled across road blocks in their lives, yet managed to overcome these trials to be labeled champions. Perhaps the rough and rocky road they have been forced to walk is what polished them into first class, fine tuned athletes. Amy is an athlete that has had to work hard to overcome adversity. When Amy was in high school her parents divorced. As we talked about overcoming hardships and coping with negative aspects in life, Amy commented by saying, "Everyone has obstacles and you can make them to be as big as you want, it's just the way you go about handling them. The important thing is how you react and deal w
