Thank you!<br><br><br>__________<br><br><br>Had it not been for my father s influence, Tommy might have given up the game. With the help of his grandfather and his own character, Tom refused to quit the game he loved. From 1991 until the 1996 season prior to his death, Tom s Grandpa never missed a game unless he was in the hospital. <br><br>Coach Mark Collelouri<br>Tom s coach and father<br><br>__________<br><br>Note from BFS President, Greg Shepard: Mario was a chief sponsor at two clinics I did at their school. Mario would do anything to help kids and athletes in the community. He gave freely of his time, money and talents. Mario helped others play their song.<br>ter the game, related Anthony.  We concentrate on playing your best self. The only thing I can control is to try to improve myself. To become my best self. <br>PLU was a huge underdog for the national championship game against Rowan. They were supposed to get crushed. So what do you do to get ready to play such an intimidating foe? Anthony just smiled.  We sang the 12 Days of Christmas as loud as we could. It was a controlled calm and intensity. PLU won 42-13.<br>The Lutes of PLU won in only their second year in NCAA Division III football. Their men s teams compete in 11 sports while the women compete in 10 sports. They are in a nine-school alliance called the Northwest Conference. PLU has won the All-Sports Trophy 13 times in its 14-year history. The Lutes play their football at Sparks Stadium which is covered and seats 4,500. The stadium features artificial turf and a large press box.<br>Anthony has only missed three workouts in his entire college career. He has achieved a 333- pound Power Clean, a Parallel Squat of 650 and a 475 Bench.  The thing that has changed, says Anthony,  is my body fat. It is 6.3% and I m 5-11 and weigh 221 pounds. At the pro combine in March, Anthony had a great day. He Benched 225 for 28 reps, ran a 4.49 forty and soared to 37.5 inches on the Vertical Jump. <br> To play football in the NFL used to be a dream. Now it s a goal. A realistic one, smiled Anthony confidently.  To be successful you have to have determination and have unity. Everyone striving to make themselves into their best selves. At PLU you have to work for everything. For two-a days we took a trip down the Oregon Coast. No footballs were allowed. We had fun and got unified. Nothing about football. It was all about relationships. We talked about expectations. We had competitions. We won our first game and we were unified. Somehow, we were also completely organized. <br>Anthony made six different All-America teams. He rushed for 116.6 yards per game and scored 23 touchdowns. En route to the national championship, Anthony set a playoff record for touchdowns. He was also the MVP of the Lutheran All-Americans which consists of colleges from Division I-AA to Division III. Anthony was the Northwest League MVP and also a PLU team captain and PLU MVP. In 1998 Anthony was Conference Offensive Player of the Year. Have all these honors gone to his head? <br>Not in the slightest. Anthony s favorite saying is about this very subject.  To be humble when brought low is one thing but to be humble when praised upon is a rare and great achievement. Anthony also believes the most important thing in his life is God. He will graduate this May as a theater major. Anthony hopes to one day teach drama, theater and coach. He then spouted off another Frostyism,  That s what I want to do for a loving. <br>Frosty Westering has had a big imp
