It was exciting to see them focus on the three words that typify our team vision. The team got the taste for breaking records . <br>The Badger s weight room ethic became blatantly obvious on Friday nights. Amazingly the class of 2002 broke 74 school records under the lights of Badger Stadium!<br> We took pride in our physical attack style defense, commented Eric Peterson, the varsity defensive coordinator,  Our Bear 4-6 defense only allowed 1,062 yards rushing in 13 games, three of which we held our opponents to negative totals! <br>After winning the CIF championship game, Calpreps.com ranked the badgers #8 in the central section, and #9 in the state of California for division four football. It became obvious to all that something special had happened to the mountain men of Oakhurst, but what the community did not realize was that the athletes had spent long hours preparing for those hard fought battles. The many hours of summer training had prepared them to be the best.<br> <br>Team Leaders<br><br>Six foot three 280 lb. senior Cole Popovich was an amazing leader in the weight room, having destroyed almost every lifting record in Badger history. At the age of 17, Popovich was able to parallel squat 500 lbs, bench 365, hex dead 565, and proved his explosiveness with a 320 lb. power clean! <br> The most impressive record that Cole set was his vertical leap& , said Eames, his voice teeming with emotion.  To have a 280 lb lineman who can leap 35  vertically, and has a standing broad jump of 9 5 really gives the team an almost unfair advantage. <br>That advantage is exactly what the coaching staff utilized. They placed the mountain-sized mammoth at the heart of their offense and defensive line. The division one prospect saw his love for the weight room translate into domination at the line of scrimmage.<br> The common mistake that people made, commented Popovich,  was thinking that our team had the biggest line on the field. The truth is that guys like John Garcia made the difference. <br> John Garcia, recipient of the Badger s  Iron Man award, started at offensive guard being only 5 8 and 170 lbs, proved that the BFS program can elevate a smaller or lighter player to a competitive level! John might not have been bigger than his opponents but he was faster and stronger. Lifting well over three times his body weight, Garcia could lift an amazing 585 lbs in the box squat! His improvement record is outstanding: comparing his freshman and junior year he improved in the parallel squat from 170 to 365 lbs, his power clean jumped from 115 to 215, and his bench went from 145 to 235. <br>Many seniors just like Popovich and Garcia spent endless hours of training. Not only did they achieve their goal of being the best team in history at Yosemite High School, they have sparked the fires of tradition that will be burning strong for some time. Coach Eames love of tenacious weight room practices proved to be the winning edge that made the Badgers  VALLEY CHAMPS . <br>Gregoire agrees that USC was an ideal choice for Williams, as it enabled her to mai
