They start each day off with a swimming workout in the pool at 5 a.m. and the rest of the day finds them involved in vigorous training and conditioning drills in temperatures that reach over 100 degrees. Calcagno reports,  the kids really bond and come together as a family. This starts each football season off on the right foot. The Pirates are ready to take on any team after this intense training session in Jackson.<br> In 1998 the San Leandro Pirates were ready for battle. They had been training intensely on the BFS system. They had prepared and fulfilled all the requirements to become champions. They were ready to go-fight-win and that is exactly what they did. Their defense was an offense s worst nightmare. This lethal force rose to the top and was labeled as the #1 defense in all of Northern California. They physically punished their opponents and finished the regular season with an astounding 9-1 record. The Pirates best game of the season came when they did battle with their arch-rivals Bishop O Dowd. Bishop O Dowd had been undefeated for the last four years since they ve been in the HAAL League. To make things more exciting it was their homecoming. The Pirates strapped on their helmets and came to town to take care of business the old-fashioned way. On the opening kickoff, San Leandro fielded the ball at the 20- yard line and ran it all the way back for an 80-yard touchdown. The rest of the game was history as San Leandro crashed Bishop O Dowds Homecoming and brought their 19-0 winning streak to a screeching halt. What a victory! <br>The Pirates went on to the playoffs but lost a nail biter to Castro Valley. Then Bishop O Dowd returned with a vengeance to put them out in the semi-finals. Although the Pirates lost in the semi-finals, they were still labeled the Hayword Area Athletic League Champions. Six players were named All-League and inside linebacker Mike Smith was named Defensive Player of the Year. <br>Coach Calcagno says he has really been blessed. San Leandro had not been to the playoffs in eight years and had not won league since 1987. Just three years after taking over a desolate program and incorporating the BFS system, he led the Pirates to a 9-1 record and an HAAL Championship Title. Quite the turn around for the former Pirate himself.<br>When discussing the keys for turning this losing tradition around, Coach Calcagno replied,  On the BFS system the kids are able to see their results as they keep track of sets & reps. This gives them motivation and they don t become stagnant in their workouts. Coach Calcagno went on to explain that the kids need to be training correctly to increase their speed and strength.  The older kids showing the younger ones how to lift is promisingou and will drive you throughout the game. There is no way I could ever thank this man enough for all he has givn to me in emotional and physical strength as well as inspiration for life. <br>Coach Unterseher has a lot of admirable traits worth emulating. Some f these characteristics are outlined in this quote from one of his former students and current strength coach Jackson L. Coots.  CoachUnterseher has the unique ability of finding the positive aspects of a person or an athlete instead of focusing on their limitations and the negative aspects. He combines his enthusiasm, knowledge and faith to not only teach students, athlet
