Among the many Native Americans who have passed through its halls is none other than Jim Thorpe.<br> The school began as a boarding school, and by the 1920s and 1930s its football team held quite a respectable reputation, several times becoming the national champions. In the 1950s it became a junior college with JV football. In 1999 the school of just 1,000 was accredited as a four-year university and Haskell s Fightin Indians football team began playing NAIA Division I football.<br>  Haskell is a government school, explains the Fightin Indians new Football Strength, Speed and Conditioning Coordinator, Curtis Schultz.  We are located on Indian land and we are college football s only all-Native American team. We re also affordable to any Native American with a tribal card we charge just $105 per semester, including room, board and tuition. It s a great opportunity for those who come through our doors. <br> This season, Haskell has revamped its team.  We re almost all freshmen, maybe ten sophomores, a couple juniors and just four seniors, says Coach Schultz.  We ve switched from option to spread this year, and have a new head coach, Graham Snelding. It s a young team, but it is pure untapped potential. A lot of these kids have never even lifted weights or explored their real potential. Many Native Americans mature late, and some of these kids are still growing, putting onsize and making strength gains like you wouldn t believe. <br><br>The Dog Soldiers<br><br> In the middle of last summer, assistant coach Joe Forchtner was discussing strategy with his colleagues, putting the finishing touches on the playbook.  We began to think about traditions, like the Nebraska Black Shirts, says Coach Forchtner,  and we realized we needed one as a new rallying point for our defense. <br> Out of the caucus came the Dog Soldiers.  With Head Coach Snelding in his first year at the helm, tradition and respect to the school and the Native American was his first priority, recalls Coach Schultz.<br>  Tse-tschese-staeste is what the Cheyenne people call themselves. The word Cheyenne was believed to come from the French word chien for don advanced to the regional playoffs against Edison High School. Madison prevailed 20-14 in overtime, led by Tyier Lee s 156 yards rushing and two touchdowns. Coach Leib feels that Lee s ability to push through injuries and exhaustion he carried the ball 27 times on offense and played outside linebacker on defense was due in no small part to his BFS conditioning.<br>The Warhawks lost the regional championship to Mt. Vernon High School the following week, but their 8-3 record and district championship made all their hard work well worth the effort. Reflecting on the startling reversal from their preceding season s 2-8 record, Coach Leib gave the primary credit to the hard work of his players. He felt that their commitment to the BFS program, particularly the parallel squatting and box jumps, greatly increased their explosive power and speed. He is convinced that as a team they were stronger at the end of the year than at the beginning.<br>Coach Leib, who at one time in his first year of
