When you combine his athletic ability with his work ethic and mental toughness, it is no wonder that he is a champion. He played short corner on our football team this past season, but I loved watching him fly down field on the kick-off team. With his speed and explosiveness, you can imagine some of the great collisions that happened out there. They were fun to watch. As you can see, having a power lifting team at our school has been a great success.<br><br>Our whole strength and conditioning program has progressed drastically since that 1985 BFS clinic. We now have six classes with twenty-five athletes in each class. That s a total of 150 athletes. We also have 200 athletes that train in our weight room daily.<br><br>In closing, I would like to say that the people at BFS have done a super job. I know some of our opponents in football use the BFS system. We had a war with Miami Southridge when we played them. This year Glenn Mills is coming to Paul Brown Tiger Stadium during week six of our season. The BFS story on them was most impressive, and that match-up looks to be a great one! Thanks Bigger Faster Stronger for all you do.e second half.&nbsp; I could tell that the players were a little shook up coming off the&nbsp;field and I spoke to Coach Martin about how we were going to address the team.&nbsp; As it turned out, when we got to the locker room a former player and captain of our 1994 championship team Rob Edmond was addressing the team.&nbsp; He payed particular attention to the seniors when he spoke about leadership, dedication, family and having the heart of a champion.&nbsp; Well, the message hit home so much that there was very little for the coaches to say.&nbsp; The 1996 team had been challenged by a former player and the only question was how would they respond.&nbsp; The first good sign came on Monday morning when a senior, Donnie Sargent, came in with a message he had printed entitled "Heart Check".&nbsp; He asked me if he could put the message&nbsp;on the players lockers and&nbsp;I said yes immediately.&nbsp; We talked about it all week individaully and as a team.&nbsp; We always talk about dealing with adversity to the team and now they knew it was time to stand up and be counted.&nbsp; It certainly seemed to work as we went on to win our last 6 conference games and gained the fourth and last spot in the playoffs.&nbsp; We were 7-1 and the three other teams were 8-0; we would have to go on the road for the first time in three years.&nbsp; However, the players knew that would be the case from the second week on and they were excited about the opportunity of being back in the playoffs.</P> <P>We played the number one seeded team at their field.&nbsp; They were undefeated and to make matters worse they were coached by a close friend of mine who had come over from New York a couple of years after me.&nbsp; We were losing 7-6 at the half in what would be a classic playoff game.&nbsp; At half-time, our captain, Daryn Plummer came over to me to ask if he could speak to the team.&nbsp; I agreed and Daryn spoke to the team about our theme of "Team First" in 96 and about what it had taken for us to get this far.&nbsp; He reminded the players about the off-season and summer BFS program as well as our week in the Poconos.&nbsp; There was no real discussion of X's and O's.&nbsp; We went ahead 13-7 in the third quarter after Nick Solomon, a junior running back, ran from 20 yards following a forced poor punt.&nbsp; Nick is 5'8" 185 pounds and has a 400 Parallel Squat, a 225-pound Clean, 500-pound Dead Lift and runs a 4.5 forty.&nbsp; He along with Daryn Plummer, Jan Handeland, Chris Harris, R
