The opposite was true of Rachel as she grew up with free weights.<br>Everyone on the team loves breaking personal records at such a rapid pace. Julie says that it gives you more incentive and you just know you are going to break some records every workout. She likes seeing results every week. Rachel says,  Oh yeah, I broke at least eight records every week. Rachel s favorite lift is the Hex Bar Lift with the Towel Bench a close second while Julie s is the Parallel Squat. Julie Benches 120, Squats 165 and Cleans 100 pounds while Rachel Benches 185, Squats 235 and Cleans 135 pounds. Julie has a 26-inch vertical jump and Rachel s is 19 inches.<br>Julie feels her work in strength and conditioning has helped her greatly.  It s helped me with my speed and not getting knocked around. I can also play a lot longer now. <br>Rachel is also very positive.  I was probably the slowest on the team when I came to Regis but now I can keep up with anyone. Also, I can box out much taller girls. <br>After graduation Julie might try to play in Europe and then go into landscape design. She has a lot of possibilities because of her 3.9 GPA. Rachel is a marketing major. Her plans include the possibility of a sports marketing career or trying her hand at coaching. She should graduate with a 3.7 GPA.<br>Julie counsels high school athletes to be disciplined and to break your records every time. Rachel gives this advice,  Don t let frustration get the better of you. Keep pushing. If you can lift as a team that s what you want to do. When everyone is cheering for you, it s a cool feeling. <br>It was a cool feeling to be at Regis University. Everd shoulders back. The athlete will now be able to balance with the heels on the ground in a perfect parallel squat psition.<br><br>KNEE ALIGNMENT WITH <br>PULLING MOVEMENTS<br><br>The Power Clean requires straight knees (Picture 9): Use a  jump stance when lfting any weight from the floor as in the Power Clean. A wider, shoulder width type stance will cause unwanted pressure to the medial collateral knee ligament. <br>After  racking the bar, make sure the feet come back to a  jump stance before setting the bar back to thefloor.<br>The Dead Lift requires straight knees (Picture 10): Again, use a  jump stance whn doing a Hex Bar or straight ba Dead Lift. Do not use a shoulder width stance. The knees should always be aligned straight over the feet when picking up a weight or setting it down. <br>Look at Picture 10. Her knees are directly over her toes. This is perfect. Never Let the knees come together as in Picture 9. <br>Th technique to correct knee problems here is the same s the Squat. First, yell  knees to help the athlete becom aware of the problem. Second, lightly tap the inside of the knee and third, use video analysis.<br><br>CONCLUSION<br><br>Be constantly aware of an athlete s knees, making sure they are always aligned correctly. Most Knee injuries do not have to happen. <br>I want straight knees when blocking, tackling, jumping, sprinting, squatting, cleaning, lifting, sitting or rebounding.

All-State quarterback, Cody Oxarart, helped win a state championship in football and basketball and was also on the 1,600-meter relay track team that won state. What an awesome accomplishment to be able to call yourself a three-sport state champion! LeeAnn Pekovitch has achieved All-State status in track, volleyba
