Resistance exercises, overspeed exercises and biomechanical work round out the major components. Paul Crews already a highly recruited defensive back in his junior year of high school, attests tot the value of the system:  Our plyometric program has helped me become a better overall athlete. I am definitely more explosive than I was a year ago. My reaction time on cuts and jumps has improved significantly. <br>At this point in time, Long believes that the program has made great strides forward, but still has a long journey ahead of them:  We have success but we are working for better& we haven t arrived yet. Although the team performed admirably this season with an impressive ten-zero record, they still have a few goals they would like to see accomplished for post season. Primarily, Longs focus is on attaining the Vikings first state championship. <br>In the conclusion to Dr. Sheppard s book he offers these final words:  & a tremendous fire should ignite inside you. Apply the principles learned and you will become an unstoppable force. It will become eminently evident that the sky really is the limit. It would indeed appear that a great fire has been ignited in the Vikings, in both coaches and student-athletes alike. As Charles Fuller, a senior linebacker, says,  We worked too hard to lose. As a senior I m proud of what we accomplished. To next years team: finish it!. that weights tighten you up is a myth. It does nothing but good if you do it the right way. <br> For pitchers not to lift is a crock, said Brandon.  I work my legs. I know that's where it's at. And, I don't go crazy on the bench. <br>Brad continued,  You must be committed and have a desire to make your goal. Set your goals high. Brandon added.  It will take will and determination. You can't be afraid to lose. You can't go out scared. Just be determined to mow 'em down. <br>Last season, the LSU Tiger baseball team did not do that well in the SEC tournament. The team said not to worry about it. Regionals were what was important for the national championship. They hit 20 homeruns in four games to win regionals! That was a record. Brandon was selected to the All-Tournament NCAA South Two Regional Team. They hit 17 homeruns in the College World Series which tied the record while finishing third. Brad was selected as a First Team All-American and led the SEC in homeruns and RBI's. <br>Brandon seemed so squared away during our interview, I was surprised to hear him say,  I made some bad choices in high school. I got kicked out of school my senior year. But, I did some real soul searching. I realized God gave me some talent and I wasn't supposed to waste it. I got my life back together, went to junior college and then on to LSU. <br> I never miss class now. I turn in my assignments on time. I don't drink, or chew, I don't think alcohol and tobacco are part of baseball or life. At seventeen I never would have said that. M
