Coach Samson held skill sessions for all backs, receivers and linebackers. Fundraisers, such as car washes and farm work, were done so that the team could attend the Capital High School football camp as well as the Utah State football camp, where they improved individual technique skills. <br>When football pratice started in August, the three most important questions had already been answered: 1) Were they stronger from performing the core lifts? 2) Were they faster from working on correct sprint technique, dot drills and plyometrics? 3) Were they committed to having an outstanding year in football? The answer was a confident YES! Capital was cocked and ready to explode into their fall season. They had paid their dues. <br>What was the result of all this dedication and hard work? In the first five games of the season the Capital Bruins had racked up 252 combined points, while their opponents had a total of only 23! The Bruins marched their way to the playoffs, and eventually the state championship game. They were a disciplined team that wouldn t accept losing as an option. They easily manhandled Billings for the state title with a 53-24 victory and finished another undefeated season with three state championship titles in the 90 s. Quarterback Tyler Emmert lead the Bruins offense, while his older brother J.D. led the previous undefeated team.<br>Capital s statistics were truly outstanding. They finished #1 in the state with 452 points, the most scored in a season. Their defense only allowed 121 points to be scored against them the whole year, with five shut-out games!<br>The Bruins were led by the best defense the AA league had seen that decade. They were an unstoppable force. Part of this fearsome defense included strong safety, Greg Carothton who had outscored its three opponents in the playoffs earlier this season with a combined score of 128-20. Senior linebacker/fullback, John Hake reports,  I think that is one of our greatest weapons. We don't ever get intimidated. The Panthers played with fury. Dreams and goals were on the verge of becoming a reality. <br>The 6-2, 190 pounder Josh Williams, was the workhorse for Concordia. He had 31 carries for 282 yards. Glimpses of John Hakes eighth grade photo flashed through William's mind with the words  1999 State Champs written on the back. Williams wanted more than anything for that dream to come true, and a broken hand wasn't going to stand in his way. The Panthers played like the champions that Coach Culwell taught them that they were and at last the sweet victory came. They no longer had to believe because now they knew that they were champions with the 42-21 win over Holton which gave them the honor to call themselves  1999 State Champions. <br>At the end of the 1999 season, after the Panthers savored their sweet State Championship title, senior quarterback, Kellen Bombardier, tried to express his deepest feelings for Coach Culwell. A lump formed in his thrbeatable! As another soccer year came to an end, the Bruins found themselves competing once again for their fourth straight State AA title. They not only beat their arch rival Helena High School, but also won their 53rd straight soccer match! Bruin head coach Rick Thompson responded with pride that the last time these senior girls lost a match was in 1996, but they still went on to become state champions when they defeated Bozeman High School 2 - 1. In 1997 they defeated Flathead High for the state title 5 - 0. Coach Thompson exhorted,  Every one of them knows where the weightroom is and all work gg[1T:)8sZYKwCүtGHH"S8'<8 <E;U{H%Uxc$fMhq9MeG'hi7/Eh2{KN U&x)8?SEl.P6.Gz}h &QGP>=P%c%xmfI]JExgq?hEGq~OŸE^O/UΘyվ6;>(?ٕ V1ʯ\/Z|k^_}f,\`in better physical shape than the rest of the state because of the off-season workouts. <br>Th -Z:ߖz V4ɘ;oɗ a=;Xh eIqf
