You can just see it in their eyes when they tell us how many records they want to break during that day s workout. They become convinced that the program will make them better  they get hooked! Also hooked is the administration.<br> Our administration is on board with our weight training program as well, and this spring and summer they are upgrading our weight room, says Thomas.  It was clear to all of us that the expansion had to happen, since approximately one-third of the entire student body, including non-athletes enrolled in weight training classes held during regular school hours, are using the weightroom. And the interest continues to grow.<br> We re trying to get more weight training classes so our athletes don t have to lift after practice, says Thomas,  And with our success in sports there are a lot more kids who want to be a part of our athletic program right now. But it s very hard to add classes now because of the financial crunch in education and because we would have to hire another teacher to teach health. That s something we re going to have to take a serious look at. <br><br>Switching Tracks<br><br>In 2005 the Railroaders will change football conferences, although they will keep two local rivals. Thomas says the school s athletic success and his own enthusiasm will not change.  I really do love it here. We have a great administration, from our superintendent s office to our high school principal to our athletic director  these are just great guys. We have a great football staff, and we have coaches in other sports who are good people to work with. <br>Is there a concern that the athletes will get complacent about their success?  No, not with the coaches we have at this school, says Thomas.  With football we will have 17 kids on next year s team who either started for us or who played a ton of football for us, and thee s a natural tendency for players to think they can just show up. We will certainly make our kids understand that s not the case, and I can assure you the other coaches at Garrett High School will do the same. <br>Being at the top of his field at a school that is enjoying tremendous success and pride, Andy Thomas has some insight to offer to anyone interested in emulating his success:  I ve only been coaching for 10 years, but I ve heard all the stories of the guys that I ve worked with about the way things used to be. I think that one thing is true, and that is kids not only need discipline but deep down they want discipline. They want structure. <br> They also want coaches who will work them hard, and at Garrett High School we have coaches in all sports who do just
