According to Mach, he could see the possibilities for the season that was ahead.  I knew we had been blessed with talent. I also knew that if we stayed with the fundamentals learned from BFS and Jim Brown, we d be very hard to stop. <br><br>Pride at the Podium<br><br>The club breezed through the regional meets, placing first in all but one. When the 2004 state meet finally arrived on March 12, anticipation was high as lifting began. More than 300 lifters were competing at this year s WHSPA State Meet, one of the largest in history.<br>On the first day Necedah crowned its first champion in 97-pound sophomore Stevie Cross, who totaled 530 pounds on he three lifts. The next was senior Amy Seebruck, who became two-time champion in the 105-pound bodyweight class. Audrey Karbowksi, at 114, finished the three-weight-class sweep by cranking out a 315 deadlift on the way to claiming her second individual state championship. Other girls making it to the podium were Andi Johnson, 123; Laura Bergh, 132; Katie Van Dusen, 142; and Sarah Manning, 165. <br>By the end of the competition for day one, the Necedah girls had scored an amazing 77 points and had locked up a second consecutive state title.  If you were to look at any of the girls we have, you d be amazed if I were to tell you they re powerlifters, comments Mach. <br>There was no rest in sight as the club headed next to Milwaukee, Wisconsin, for the National High School meet. Audrey Karbowski won her second consecutive title, while Stevie Cross and Amy Seebruck each placed third in their divisions. With this excellent showing, the Necedah girls-and-boys combined team was able to pull off a fourth-place finish.<br>The future of girls powerlifting and athletics in general look great at Necedah. Under the BFS philosophy, coaches and athletes are working hard to improve mentally and physically. The numbers in powerlifting and sports continue to increase as students become aware of the positive value of this program. Although the bar has been set high, more and more athletes are meeting, exceeding, and loving the challenge that BFS and powerlifting provide them. off to the Air Force Academy or West Point. We ve also got one heck of a lifter in John Weirzbicki, who has deadlifted 600 lbs on two separate occasions! <br><br>Not only has the BFS program helped Cole gain strength, he feels it s been responsible for keeping him relatively injury free.  In 1996 I partially tore my NCL and rupured my ACL. I think it would have been worse if not for the weight training, says Cole.  I think the training has really helped me keep from reinjuring it this year. <br><br>As for advice for other young players who may be doubting they have the height and weight to play ball, Cole says to look to him.  Size helps, but if you have everything else, mostly heart, you ca m9N8Uough. I never feel intimidated. I look at the positive. Because I m smaller and I can get lower, this gives me an advantage. I really believe the most important thing is to believe in yourselggmpIVail.&nbsp; They
