We attribute that dominance to the fact that we were indeed bigger, faster and stronger.&nbsp; We won our semifinal contest in an exciting come-from-behind win.&nbsp; Our dream was one game away from becoming a reality.&nbsp; During fourteen weeks of the season our players continued to break records in the BFS program.&nbsp; Our players actually got stronger during the season!</P> <P>In Louisiana, the state football championships are played in the Superdome in New Orleans.&nbsp; We were on our way to play a strong St. James team that also had a 14-0 record.&nbsp; Coach Shepard was on the sidelines with us to witness what might have been the greatest high school championship 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; They were 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 Football 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, Denny Duron, was an All-America QB at Louisiana Tech.&nbsp; l 2000 saw another playoff run for the Golden Eagles with a 7-3 season (3 losses by a total of only 12 points to teams with a 29-1 combined record). Nales defeated Charlotte on the Sunshine Network (broadcast thoughout the southeast) in week 3, forcing 6 turnovers and blocking 2 punts. The offense set a new school record for points in a season with 416. Four players received all-state recognition, and for the second year in a row, Naples had the 5-A district player of the year (QB Stanley Bryant = 1,594 passing-17 TD s, 399 rushing-9 TD s). Two years of Berkut power and speed equaled the same number of playoff appearances and city championships.<br> Records continue to fall for the Eagles as their quest for a state championship continues. Winter workouts for 2001 became introspective as Coach Kramer asked players to identify the charF(j;2ò1tr6Apķ~n36<["B^1TMpU^3{=Ũq:PvZ,g3J6ِg\AqȻꓦ.񩮍K)
