Daily records have been kept of athlete and non-athletes, male and female, faculty, and staff usage and workouts per week and month. Most weight rooms are open before school, at lunch, 6th period, after school, and on Saturday. In September, the number of workouts that took place was over 12,000. In October, over 15,000 workouts occurred. In November, almost 17,000 workouts took place in the Mesa High Schools.<br>Obviously the numbers have shown that the strength coaches pilot program has been successful.  At Westwood, all students, athletes and non-athletes have the opportunity to maximize the results of their strength training efforts, due to the availability of highly skilled, knowledgeable, and certified strength coaches, says Harold Crenshaw, principal. The program now goes to the teacher s union, Mesa Educational Association, and the school board for consideration of permanent placement on the salary schedule. We are hopeful that the program will continue to serve our students, athletes, faculty, and staff and serve as a model for other high school strength coaches.<br>If you would like more information on the Mesa Strength Coaches proposal and program, you may contact either Walt Sword or Bob Jennings at Westwood High School. You may also contact Jerry Wheeler, at Mountain View, Doug Larish, at Mesa High, Mark Swartz, at Skyline, Steve Cerqua, at Red Mountain, or Steve Hogen, district athletic director for more information. <br> We are very excited about the strength coaching positions at our high schools, says Hogen.  This is an awesome example of what can be accomplished through a combined effort by quality instructors."s athletes, the school has weight training classes as part of the curriculum. "We're spending maybe a week or two every nine-week period to introduce the kids to the weights and what they can do."<br>With his panoramic view of the team over the past 13 years, does Stanford think the athlees have changed much? "They've changed over te years, but still they're looking for discipline. If you discipline a player and treat him right, e'll usually do whatever you want." As for his advice to other coaches, Stanford says, "You've got to love kids because you're goingt came in the form of an airplane <br>carrying a banner reading,  Go Gladiators. Go Elevens! <br>That amazing moment came from the same parent who had volunteered to put up half the money for the seminar, the father of player Joe McDonald, who, as a graduating senior is now awaiting his appointment at West Point, along with fellow teammate, Kyle Johnston.<br> The banner was pure inspiration, says Davis.  We were in the end zone ready to start the game when it flew overhead. What a moment for the team! <br>The lane and banner showed up again for the next game, just in time to turn the score in the Gladiators favor, and again for the first game of the playoffs, which unfortunately, the Gladiators didn t win. Against their nemesis Forestville, the defending champs, Glenelg lost 20 points to 7. But they had made it to the playoffs, and that effort was pure eleven!<br><br>Where from Here?<br><br>As a fitting end to the season, Coach Davis was named the county s Coach of the Year. However, a humbled Coach Davis already has his sights focussed on the new season.
