Culwell praised,  That was a great effort. He is a true warrior. Next came a big game against unbeaten 10-0 Kingman. The Panthers demolished them easily with a 16-0 shutout victory. This advanced them into the semi-finals of the State Playoffs for the first time in history. Things were getting heated up and the Panthers were on a roll. They barely beat Wellington 16-14 for a shot to play for state crown. <br>The State Championship game against 12-0 undefeated Holton, was Concordia's final test to see if they had what it took to wear the number one crown in the state. They faced number one ranked Holton who had outscored its three opponents in the playoffs earlier this season with a combined score of 128-20. Senior linebacker/fullback, John Hake reports,  I think that is one of our greatest weapons We don't ever get intimidated. The Panthers played with fury. Dreams and goals were on the verge of becoming a reality. <br>The 6-2, 190 pounder Josh Williams, was the workhorse for Concordia. He had 31 carries for 282 yards. Glimpses of John Hakes eighth grade photo flashed through William's mind with the words  1999 State Champs written on the back. Williams wanted more than anything for that dream to come true, and a broken hand wasn't going to stand in his way. The Panthers played like the champions that Coach Culwell taught them that they were and at last the sweet victory came. They no longer had to believe because now they knew that they were champions with the 42-21 win over Holton which gave them the honor to call themselves  1999 State Champions. <br>At the end of the 1999 season, after the Panthers savored their sweet State Championship title, senior quarterback, Kellen Bombardier, tried to express his deepest feelings for Coach Culwell. A lump formed in his throat as emotions of gratitude consumed him. He couldn't get the words out so he expressed his feelings in a letter that thanked Coach Culwell for leading them to success. Bombardier praised,  Thanks for making us believe that we could be State Champions by making us say it everyday. It was a dream come true to play with all of my best friends and win the State Championship. . That s what they are trained to do. <br>That s what BFS athletes and team do everyday. Break records. Reaching down and finding the energy to go beyond the ordinary, to the extraordinary.<br>That s why BFS schools win. They train to win everyday, they discipline themselves to complete their workout, they break records. They know that every record they break is another step toward winning the Championship. They know that they are on a collision course with success, t/t\:6Ŀ@.:6dc*B<zX!(U/6)i8RNo E!TPyy@J5f4y?+}d5kIG3Tӽ+;?hq`7-ѿ{.!sր ,MyJmeBd"̭n2\rΨ`5:ik^G$ӆJH f]4Mc=jwUuUK)dI 1JuN~skk{.em+AZiP+7&8V"8T)?!Kze]\87 ,K\ H\wJr"=#«RJNٱ<6|EYEix'"1\I )lK[%Vqx&C7c vG*tmi[-.}B0>|zᾑM!p3x  /"G1 IKx/aa㒍WWhX89`ȧre;& AcJniZFgJ+B=6uEj׉Ê<2Ssȟ'^Iiw5Nj#diVh>2F[2?27sگ)HV|=]1l}HAԀ)}Ƈ I'gb^Kv© ~ 4\G6`P8ly) ~n걹1,@RBBQ#s=mFQ=ueVߙ7hy(PtE%#m.M;/n[+>t-9)Zqm_v-,t5R 6no噸x$:586:$iDse>/S_SnLy(Y-~H:?͒\ѓ>O/ UBIpQwɰ%~ru[rZIaI&;O,+(4}ٳ;A^ýc|?yD'!A~5OW_y~*s\?ơ#ޣNyAAbGɔ[Q9$ "7UFpFwѻN",;@#N%^/ &P vL]Y1'#%y$ DsOTܺEzwUhc2|c#]}ZQ\ $q?ԍ~'Fis/溌dywͣ|'o,L!^`GH'Bw9}$q\$bJ[g>,YOw&/RO1߶}6l˸q!_Q$+pԿ£\F%i!ۚ_5 F:5ʋeeo&;SK;Lym*n9rG.(S%PiAear9vz:Y0ufd{]_CiDCz؉zgOқԃmĚALnigE'=)JXNڷ#WǛ|vYGx#Rԓ%N-]$YuaTH6EE2:JK.nŹFAr1<$\2/oT(q/i$}(<5O5Nwǰ215 W- ^;{ fFG29~z鴗u3Ðw 2 @pC-]Ww֝)l-[YR~2I=/RhZkdVvny^"V&_(U5LrשF'nXwE
