He remembered,  I had worked so hard. It was always a dream of mine to make the 1st BFS All-American Team but after my injury I thought my chances were completely gone. <br> This injury was my first true test on how hard I was willing to work to overcome a true obstacle. I know that my small injury is nothing compared to what others have had overcome. I read about many true stories in the BFS Journal about how others had overcome a lot more than I faced. That got me going.<br> When I first got hurt, the trainer was examining my leg. I asked him to tell me the truth. He said that I would not be able to play again this year, if ever. I sat on the sideline almost in tears thinking that I had played my last down of football ever. However, through my faith in myself and faith in God, I was able to come back to finish district playoff games and lead my team to the quarterfinals. <br><br>Scholarship<br><br>Conrad was the valedictorian at Malden High School. He received an  A in every class all four years except one and that was an  A- because he missed a class for a track meet. Conrad s secret?  I tried to really focus on every word my teachers said. At college, studies always come first. The coaches at Central really support this. <br><br>Leadership and General Character<br><br>Conrad leads by example in all areas of life, but one area that is most impressive is his leadership in relation to drugs, alcohol and tobacco.  Anything that is going to hurt your body, says Conrad,  you must stay away from. Drugs, alcohol and/or tobacco are not for anybody; athlete or non-athlete. Conrad has never gone near a drug, taken a sip of alcohol or touched a tobacco product. <br> It was never hard for me, explained Conrad.  The first time I was offered was at an 8th grade party. I decided to go home. I asked if anyone wanted to leave with me and one person did. We ended up watching a movie and eating pizza. Coach Ivie has had both his sons, Conrad and younger brother Cole repeat the BFS Three Rules For Success and do the BFS Dot Drill before breakfast since they were two years old. They do tand coaches are sold on this system because we see the results and we can make BFS fit our time constraints. Several high schools in our area have had outstanding results using the same system, so BFS will remain our #1 vehicle to success in the future. <br>About this year's season Coach Hoyt continues,  This year the Trojans were supposed to be in a major rebuilding situation with the loss of fifteen seniors, five all-staters, and the player of the year in '97 and '98. After a sensational off-season in the weight room using the BFS core lifts, plyometrics, running, the dot drill and summer passing league, the Trojans managed to finish first in their conference and play in the state title game despite having a new system, an
