When the 2004 state meet finally arrived on March 12, anticipation was high as lifting began. More than 300 lifters were competing at this year s WHSPA State Meet, one of the largest in history.<br>On the first day Necedah crowned its first champion in 97-pound sophomore Stevie Cross, who totaled 530 pounds on her three lifts. The next was senior Amy Seebruck, who became two-time champion in the 105-pound bodyweight class. Audrey Karbowksi, at 114, finished the three-weight-class sweep by cranking out a 315 deadlift on the way to claiming her second individual state championship. Other girls making it to the podium were Andi Johnson, 123; Laura Bergh, 132; Katie Van Dusen, 142; and Sarah Manning, 165. <br>By the end of the competition for day one, the Necedah girls had scored an amazing 77 points and had locked up a second consecutive state title.  If you were to look at any of the girls we have, you d be amazed if I were to tell you they re powerlifters, comments Mach. <br>There was no rest in sight as the club headed next to Milwaukee, Wisconsin, for the National High School meet. Audrey Karbowski won her second consecutive title, while Stevie Cross and Amy Seebruck each placed third in their divisions. With this excellent showing, the Necedah girls-and-boys combined team was able to pull off a fourth-place finish.<br>The future of girls powerlifting and athletics in general look great at Necedah. Under the BFS philosophy, coaches and athletes are working hard to improve mentally and physically. The numbers in powerlifting and sports continue to increase as students become aware of the positive value of this program. Although the bar has been set high, more and more athletes are meeting, exceeding, and loving the challenge that BFS and powerlifting provide them.

Sixteen players tested at 300 or better in the bench press and great technique was obtained in the parallel squat. That year, the football team went 7 and 3, with a loss in the State playoff first round. The biggest thing that most players liked about their first year of BFS was that they got stronger as the season went on.<br><br>PRE-SEASON TESTS<br><br>It is said that championships are won from January through August, so back to work we went. Sticking to the plan and fine tuning our program, we were thrilled with our pre-2000 season test.<br>On the bench press, 33 players lifted 300 pounds or more and 4 players bench pressed over 400 pounds. On the parallel squat, there were 18 players over 400 pounds. Dot drill times improved an average of 13 seconds per player. Team times for the 40-yard dash improved .02 seconds. Our biggest improvement was Ryan Jenkins, a senior (Captain) defensive tackle. Ryan went from a 5.38 forty time to a 4.9. Jenkins was also one of those 400 plus in the bench and squat. Ryan credits his speed improvement to stretching, squatting and the straight-leg dead lift. Larry Kelliher, also a senior defensive tackle and a 400 plus in both lifts, i
