Again, she credits the weights.  Weight training is important because it makes you a better person all around. It gives you confidence and makes you feel better about yourself, so that you can support others. She maintains a 3.6 GPA and competes in basketball, tennis and powerlifting as well.<br>Senior Jessie Martin has been with the team four years and reflects on how the team improved their camaraderie.  The weight training really pushes you; it caused us as a team to become very close. Weight training disciplines us not only in athletics but in other things in life. You learn to watch out for your teammate, to help them along and encourage them. It s not just about bettering yourself. <br><br>A Great Record<br><br>In addition to being State Champions, three of the girls have won Player of the Year for  97,  98 and  99--their names respectively are Keva Brown, Crystal Carlyle and Lauren Gains.<br>Coach Bishop cites several factors beyond the athletes that make his team a winner.  After the athletes, you ve got to look at the coaches, says Bishop.  When you look at Coach Byron Orr, head softball coach, you see a guy who has been Coach of the Year twice, and four times regional Coach of the Year.i@Ht factor that counts is support from the administration and parents, and we ve got that. Our field is immaculate, second to none, and the support from the student body as well as parents and the administration is incredible. We re a town really behind our high school teams. <br> The other important factor is a great speed, strength and conditioning program. Our girls have won 165 games and lost 35. They were statechamps in  97 and  98, runners-up in  95 and  99 and fifth place in  96. We ve won four regional titles, and I couldn t even name the number of tournaments.<br> Before the weight training, our girls hit six home runs; last year it was 43. The batinМEes went from an average of .341 to .479. Stats like this show they got stronger and stronger. It s not uncommon to see every player with All State status in the lifts--we ve given out in the past 5 years at least 100 different T-shirts for All State status, and our softball girls must have 80 of them! <br>Weight training is offered before school, all day long as a class and during the summer. The North Forsyth girls hold team bests with a bench of 205, power clean of 195, squat of 285 and a vertical jump of 24.1. Team member Megan Thacke
