No, this isn t where you learn to drive to get a car license but where you learn the elements of driving a skeleton sled. Tricia was a fast learner. After only five days in school, she placed 5th in a national race and qualified to be on the  B team.  I loved it, gushed Tricia.  It was a huge rush. I loved it more than skiing. <br>In February of 1999, Tricia placed 2nd in the nation.  Then, I m like  wow . I began to lift and sprint but I was still working full time. It was at that point the stunning news came to Tricia: Skeleton was going to be an Olympic sport. Now, she became really serious. In the year 2000, Tricia placed first in the U.S. Skeleton and was on the U.S. team. Tricia was on a roll as she participated in her first World Cup and earned a bronze medal.<br>Tricia began to think in higher terms.  I took a leave of absence from work, remembered Tricia. She never returned.  I felt I had a chance to achieve a medal in the 2002 Olympics. In May of 2000, I met Eric Snowden, a BFS Certified Coach and President of Pro-Elite Strength Systems. Eric asked a thought provoking question,  Tricia, how serious are you? <br>Tricia replied,  I m serious. I quit my jo. Eric decided to train Tricia.  I began the BFS Program and what a difference. I went from being ranked 10th to 4th in the world. And, of course, with skeleton becoming an Olympic sport, many new people entered the arena of competition. With my BFS Training Program, I was absolutely able to tell the difference. For the first time, I was able to sustain my strength during the season. I competed in Germany, Canada, Austria and Japan. I not only made positive changes in my training but Eric also helped me with my eating habits and rest. <br> It was important for Tricia to compete internationally, said Snowden.  She earned World Cup points. Tricia has been to all but one track now on the international circuit. She will hit that remaining one this year. <br> This helps in the development of new skills, said Tricia. I race be smiled Anthony confidently.  To be successful you have to have determination and have unity. Everyone striving to make themselves into their best selves. At PLU you have to work for everything. For two-a days we took a trip down the Oregon Coast. No footballs were allowed. We had fun and got unified. Nothing about football. It was all about relationships. We talked about expectations. We had competitions. We won our first game and we were unified. Somehow, we were also completely organized. <br>Anthony made six different All-America teams. He rushed for 116.6 yards per game and scored 23 touchdowns. En route to the national championship, Anthony set a playoff record for touchdowns. He was also the MVP of the Lutheran All-Americans which consists of colleges from Division I-AA to Division III. Anthony was the Northwest League MVP and also a PLU team captain and PLU MVP. In 1998 Anthony was Conference Offensive Player of the Year. Have all these honors gone to his head? <br>Not in the slightest. Anthony s favorite saying is about this very subject.  To be humble when brought low is one thing but to be humble when praised upon is a rare and great achievement. Anthony also believes the most important thing in his life is God. He will graduate
