Ashley: </STRONG>My motivation is for now! My last chance is next year. <STRONG>Lindsey: </STRONG>My freshman year, I didn't do very much but then I thought just how good we <U>could</U> be. <STRONG>Brianne: </STRONG>Our expectations and standards are so much higher. We have got to meet them. <STRONG>Cherisse: </STRONG>I've always had someone in front of me. I've got to prove myself. If we all can get just a little faster, jump a little higher and get a little stronger. <STRONG>Q: WHAT ABOUT COLLEGE?</STRONG> <STRONG>Ashley: </STRONG>I want to play and go into something like sports broadcasting. Definitely something in sports. <STRONG>Lindsey: </STRONG>I want to play both volleyball and basketball. I plan on going into the medical field, possibly a sports orthopedic surgeon. <STRONG>Brianne: </STRONG>Oh yeah! I want to play in college. I plan on being a business major. <STRONG>Cherisse: </STRONG>Yes, I would like to play in college. I am considering a major in nursing and business. <STRONG>Q: WILL WEIGHT TRAINING MAKE A GIRL LESS FEMININE? Ashley:</STRONG> Hey, healthy is in. <STRONG>Lindsey: </STRONG>That depends on how you do it. <STRONG>Brianne: </STRONG>It's an athletic thing to do. <STRONG>Cherisse: </STRONG>Muscle tone is a good thing. It is attractive. <STRONG>Q: WILL WEIGHTS SCREW UP YOUR TOUCH? Ashley: </STRONG>You can adjust by just practicing. <STRONG>Lindsey: </STRONG>When you play and lift, your body adjusts. <STRONG>Brianne: </STRONG>I don't believe it! <STRONG>Cherisse: </STRONG>All you need to do is have balance in your training. <STRONG>Q: WHAT ABOUT DRUGS AND ALCOHOL MIXED WITH ATHLETICS? Ashley: </STRONG>Don't touch it. Don't mess with it. My religious beliefs keep me from doing it. I have never had a drop. <STRONG>Lindsey: </STRONG>I don't do it because it isn't right. We all have made it clear to our friends that we don't do that stuff. So there is no social pressure now. <STRONG>Q: WHAT DOES IT TAKE TO BE SUCCESSFUL OR DO YOU HAVE ANY SAGE ADVICE? Ashley: </STRONG>You have only one chance in life so make the best of it. We didn't win the national championship on March 3rd: we won it with three hour practices and obeying the rules. <STRONG>Lindsey: </STRONG>It takes dedication and hard work. Also, if you are going to play, you should play because you love it. <STRONG>Brianne: </STRONG>Talent can only take you so far. You have to have a work ethic. <STRONG>Q: WHAT DO THE GUYS THINK ABOUT YOU LIFTING WEIGHTS? Ashley: </STRONG>The guys know this is what we do. <STRONG>Lindsey: </STRONGI am getting stronger. So what if you're a girl. <STRONG>Cherisse: </STRONG>Sometimes they say, "You're such a wimp." But, we are National Champions. We aren't going to let them intimidate us.&nbsp;</P> <P>About three months after our interview and just before we went to press, I called the girls to find out what the effects of our mini-clinic were on their lifting program. Here is what they said: <STRONG>Lindsey: </STRONG>We worked really hard after you left. We could really tell the difference. It was neatust have faith in yourself and faith in God. First is faith in God, He has a plan for each and every one of us. We must trust Him and the plan He has for us and try to follow it as He wants us to. You must know that through it all He is always there for you. He loves you no matter what, and He will be b
