The many hours of summer training had prepared them to be the best.<br> <br>Team Leaders<br><br>Six foot three 280 lb. senior Cole Popovich was an amazing leader in the weight room, having destroyed almost every lifting record in Badger history. At the age of 17, Popovich was able to parallel squat 500 lbs, bench 365, hex dead 565, and proved his explosiveness with a 320 lb. power clean! <br> The most impressive record that Cole set was his vertical leap& , said Eames, his voice teeming with emotion.  To have a 280 lb lineman who can leap 35  vertically, and has a standing broad jump of 9 5 really gives the team an almost unfair advantage. <br>That advantage is exactly what the coaching staff utilized. They placed the mountain-sized mammoth at the heart of their offense and defensive line. The division one prospect saw his love for the weight room translate into domination at the line of scrimmage.<br> The common mistake that people made, commented Popovich,  was thinking that our team had the biggest line on the field. The truth is that guys like John Garcia made the difference. <br> John Garcia, recipient of the Badger s  Iron Man award, started at offensive guard being only 5 8 and 170 lbs, proved that the BFS program can elevate a smaller or lighter player to a competitive level! John might not have been bigger than his opponents but he was faster and stronger. Lifting well over three times his body weight, Garcia could lift an amazing 585 lbs in the box squat! His improvement record is outstanding: comparing his freshman and junior year he improved in the parallel squat from 170 to 365 lbs, his power clean jumped from 115 to 215, and his bench went from 145 to 235. <br>Many seniors just like Popovich and Garcia spent endless hours of training. Not only did they achieve their goal of being the best team in history at Yosemite High School, they have sparked the fires of tradition that will be burning strong for some time. Coach Eames love of tenacious weight room practices proved to be the winning edge that made the Badgers  VALLEY CHAMPS . take place with any greater frequency than they do in other sports. And if you look at college gymnastics, you re not going to see a bunch of emaciated little girls they re athletic, healthy-looking young women. Further, Ayars believes that all athletes can benefit from participating in the sport at some level.  It doesn t matter what sport somebody plays, gymnastic training will help them be a better all-around athlete. <br>The Sandhills Academy of Gymnastics offers a variety of gymnastic programs, holding classes for those as young as 16 months all the way up to competitive junior Olympic teams. They also have popular recreational and tumbling classes. Ayars says that gymnastics usually costs more than most other sports, which he attributes to a lack of support from taxpayers who are more willing to subsidize main-stream sports such as baseball.<br>Ayars is vocal on the subject of how public support affects gymnastics in this country:  Men s gymnastics has been hurting at the international level because it s really developed at the collegiate level, and over the past 10 to 12 years the college men s gymnastics program has really been gutted. At the last Olympics our teams didn t do too well, but since then our international women s teams have been doing much better. <!4P^N[Ts"x~AH-WإTj='#mncCE^KG ҿ:iC|dT;迏 /";q(t)dDKSu"_A)ؼ*^'~'ǵ1(5 :pe9M #C8F#3+*qY9pܿy0[yLŘKCǜLy| ?:Ǘ-&J*|@9=kLT\j8Cʞ(oQueRGՒ[& eqIӮ"wƏ0Qiޅq흵չl%D+S^ rC={a!^{@a-.0ꐯ$틦E01\H)7(e`H|;h$ $]J. bi/fb?R۟Տ 8rzjj:t+A&#Nc!Mƙ>Ɨ.݆#|imT̀}$ uY^V4ښ e')*Į7|1U%P=h_mc@hG_6Jҕ4C)=9);|" <ۛg_U5=`P@#]`皳a>TL9;\lMϨA^ A_QQJt}B6nD5{yo6 ӳꤰ <9Wz6#wYݡIbv҄gav}/iiM)u=JH.".H8횼L=U?<$Y8F!ֵƿUr ?O%fǦ}jc$0o<kUN,"N"fVO(ǀpz d7NϰElįx6)}Ca_ l(}G =͊ ?\P ~ثFo <paet end='w'?>Adobed         ""   b  s!1AQa"q2B#R3b$r%C4Scs5D'6Tdt& EFVU(eufv7GWgw8HXhx)9IYiy*:JZjzm!1AQa"q2#BRbr3$4CS%cs5DT &6E'dtU7()󄔤euFVfvGWgw8HXhx9IYiy*:JZjz ?lj\?F*/Qъ6,Pl K;5>G!)WʞqWr8\N*vZ*5O|UJ늸_p$Iؘ-O# OM[!
