To help instill this belief in his athletes he has established a pen pal program in which kids from the nearby elementary schools write letters to the football players at Liberty Center.  It s good for the high school kids to see that these younger kids are constantly looking up to them, says Lingruen.  Even after they graduate they have to realize that they are role models, whether they want to be or not, and that they have a responsibility. That s what we tell our players when they enter our program they have a responsibility not only to themselves and their families, but also to the coaching staff, the football team and the community. <br><br>A Question of Priorities<br><br>Being successful in high school coaching has become a challenge in today s world because of all the distractions.  Compared to as recently as 10 years ago, many things have changed for today s high school students. The lifestyle, the freedom, the things they can do everyone s got a car now. Unfortunately, the opportunity to get into trouble is also greater and sometimes coaching seems like a fight between good and evil. However, I believe that basically every kid is good; it s just a matter of steering them in the right direction. And with both the parents working, we spend more time with these kids than their parents do.<br><br>  We strive to teach kids not to drink or smoke, and to do the right thing it s a constant battle. Although Lingruen accepts the fact that he can t keep every kid on the straight and narrow, more often than not he has made a difference.  My first year coaching I had one student who was in a lot of trouble. I had him come to my house quite a bit to talk to him now he s one of the top detectives in our county! I get a kick every time we see each other because I know how much trouble he used to be in as a youngster, and now he s the one who is making sure other people don t get in trouble! <br><br>Belief in Numbers<br><br>BFS is an integral part of the recent success at Liberty Center. Coach Lingruen started using the program in 1991, and in the Spring of 1992 the school sponsored a BFS clinic which 200 kids attended.  The BFS staff did a great job, and they reinforced some of the things we had already been doing with BFS. It was a good motivator for us going into the 1993 season, and I believe it helped us win the league championships our first league championships in almost 30 years. What s more, we won outright something I don t think we ve done in almost 60 years. <br><br> Lingruen says that Liberty Center s football players have shown extreme dedication to the BFS program. As a result, Lingruen believes that his players are stronger and in better condition than their opponents, and this has boosted the team s confidence level. Lingruen says confidence and a positive mental attitude are especially important in Liberty Center s football program, because his teams are generally much smaller than their opponents .<br><br>Supervising the conditioning program is strength coach Tim Spiess, who also serves as the defensive coordinator.  In 1985 I picked up my first Bigger Faster Stronger Magazine and I read a feature on Delphos Jefferson High School in Ohio it was just so inspiring. In fact, it was the most inspirational magazine I ve ever read, and I said to myself,  I would love to incorporate these philosophies into my ?1튫:\[:V]FhrcX5xx88b}{P2>^}h"h ([pZt=O lÜu$om@s6zSϠG Ǘl;m%pJ{o-qUrsެc^ӝr ֹ(T0;Uy,'#J$m;I})+F,zJk,.C5rPP2dm'㾵IS ". 5]kgqZtgl0jIl \Zt(V%ǥ#?i̻|g ֕xGzkYҊ,t:G4SIЊ 9ȫ UI@@KC8::8R,HۊʫM)+}eg9u>%azR!nhPy nd7awPTH3ҁ\b$( #HĔ?Lb95.R`rqpr­7P849'y%Vs.9ZqsXVM|V(_ِMϛ l=+H5R:S?c~'sxuܥv1~,4""=JQ UwOOZ)#}E_ y$}:ՂIBt`5W ܰ=Z AȪ2( vHaÁӜT2BeSTOQt۝΢Z4$V|$#;F0Tc 榿$p*70>Gb*Gw5̫yZW (F+OaXz> KdQݾQY.
