His friend got a "B" but David stuck it out nd took his "F" grade. David oes not believe in quitting anything. Last year he made it up and got an "A" grade.&nbsp;</P> <P>Peer pressure is tough for most people including David. "When I was in Polar Bluff," said David, "there wasn't a whole lot to do, so a lot of kids used alcohol. Up here at Hazelwood East, it was easier. I have always thought it was stupid to get involved in alcohol or drugs. It's like putting a gun to your face. I ended up getting a girlfriend who was morally, academically and spiritually squared away. When we went out, we studied and had fun without drugs or alcohol. I won't have it - being around people who drink.&nbsp;</P> <P>"I have never had any kind of drug and that includes marijuaa. I have never had a beer, ever! I don't drink. No one really gave me peer pressure. I think people respect you when you take a firm stand. People would say, 'Cool. That's good.' I have never seen anything good come out of it. It doesn't make you rich or healthy.&nbsp;</P> <P>"I believe in being a good Christian. The spiritual area of life is the most important part of life. You can have your football and school but you need to have thehol people start respecting you and eventually they just stop asking. There is always other things to do like going to the movies, etc. I alsobelieve part of leadership is being a good role model because tiny eyes are always watching. <br> It s nice to have people around you who believe in you, asserte Conrad.  I am lucky to have such wonderful parents, family, friends and teammates. <br><br>Proper Perspective<br><br>The following is part of Conrad s valedictorian speech:  In the ancient Greek Olympic Games, the motto was enkrateutes, prosexairo, pera - faster, higher, further. It was not faster than every one else, higher than the rest of the competition, or further than anyone else. Just faster, higher and farther. Today, I am going to tell you the two things that everyone must have in order to take themselves faster, higher and further. <br>The first thing you must have is faith. You
