"I train hard all the time," said Chris with conviction. "I plan my life around my workouts. A lot of peopl plan their workouts around their life. It's not that hard if you approach it right. I just make sure my workouts are done, then I play. My family and my fiancee, Donna, support my workouts 100 percent. It would be tough to do all this without them. They understand my commitment."&nbsp;</P> <P>The "President's List" is reserved for those who meet high academic standards. Chris Butterfield made that list. "I try to get it done academically. If you work hard in the classroom or in athletics, then good things will happen. &nbsp;</P> <P>"I also advise kids to stay away from drugs and alcohol to be successful. Arcata is probably like every other place in that peer pressure does exist. You either fall in or you don't. I didn't. I used my head and good sense. I thought about the consequences.&nbsp;</P> <P>"In college it is the same thing with my attitude towards drugs. I hang out with the guys on the team. Drugs are not something we choose to do. It's also a lot better if you don't abuse alcohol. Use your head. Think it out first. If you do that first, I believe kids will make the right decision."&nbsp;</P> <P>Chris believes in himself. He always has and his motto comfirms this: You are never too small or too short. You can accomplish your goals if you just keep at it. &nbsp;</y no means the weakest. Sandy has prospered greatly due to weight training. In one school year on the BFS program, Sandy has a 75 lb. snatch, a 105 lb. bench, a 200 lb. squat, and a 120 lb. clean.<br>"For the first time in eleven years," explains Coach McGee, " our volleyball team advanced to the state regionals. All of the heavy hitters are on this program. This training has greatly improved their vertical jump, overall strength & conditioning, and explosiveness. Major inuries have almost ceased to exist. As more and more athletes see the amazing results our kids have made they are flooding the classes. Keep an eye out for Ash Fork, on the BFS program, the sky's the limit."< whatever happens in pro football, wants to manage construction projects. <br>Karon did not lift weights at Martin Luther King High School in Detroit.  Because, says Karon,  I was always in sports. I played three sports and I was naturally strong. Karon was All-State in both football and basketball. He also ran a 10.8 100 meters at 210 pounds. Karon carried a 3.65 GPA.<br>Karon never did drugs or drank alcohol in high school.  Never, exclaimed Karon!  I was petrified. I was scared to drink. A lot of my friends did. I was usually the mediator. Detroit is not a good place not to be sober. My uncle was a police officer and I learned that it was just not worth it. <br>Being in the  hood was part of Karon s everyday life while growing up. He gives the following advice to survive:  First, be aware and be smart. Second, be down to earth. Don t try to seem better than others. Third, be careful where you go and who you are with. You can be guilty by association. <br>Karon chose SMU to play footballand made an immediate impact. He became a starter for the Mustangs at mid-season during his true freshman year. Karon also did well the following year but he wated to be closer to home. Thus, a monumental decision was made. He transferred to Minnesota. However, according to NCAA rules, Karon sat out the first year, but was given the Defensder="0"/> Q [hC HŎ3PrO묰&^۰j%m1-~5.3Mk_06~_IV^'rpOTnPvWw.$:Jral>ڹ?wٳ}KHWt<+vg~*ՎIuMG$ɠ%h\qULa\ o`eneyh 8S|hfKnaq.K0ѱFT$T/sW_ӡ'&1kGzjˢB בeiΰB,'n pj@es?%]cUcOn]o226Ro;BclMO ]gSLS!͐? k߬h?SsHȰu9}mk
