It is something you can tell your grand kids one day. "Back in high school, I lifted 500 pounds!" Confidence, self-esteem, attitude, loyalty and togetherness: all these essential ingredients that make up a championship team all came to a raging positive boil in just 30 minutes. It was one remarkable scene.<br>Six hundred pounds was loaded onto the bar for the next record. Intensity rose another notch. Eleven players reached this level. Fifty-one at 500 or more and eleven at 600 pounds. Both new national BFS records.<br>Coach Tomberlin shouted above the dim of excitement, "What's the national record for most weight ever lifted?"<br>"Seven thirty," I responded loudly. Tyler Biggins, a huge 290-pound returning starter, stepped forward. Six hundred had gone easy. I felt he had a shot. A new record weight was eased onto the bar: seven 45's on each end, along with a 25 and a 5-pound plate.<br>Everybody was going crazy. Everyone was shouting and chanting, "Tyler, Tyler, Tyler." He chalked up! He tightened the lifting straps around the bar. He pulled with all his might. The bar inched upward. The noise was deafening. Past his knees... then lockout! Tyler did it!<br>What a night. I relearned a coaching lesson. Coaching is more than X's and O's. It is more than periodization and learning the Krebs Cycle. Coaching correctly calls for passion. Coaching correctly means dealing with the human spirit! It means changing lives for the better. It is about leadership and team. It is about building and achieving.<br>No matter what happens in the future to each Golden Hawk football player, they will have a night to always remember. They will always be able to dream big. ery 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 žMR%3=O:&OQ6&4v+b6qyg9Z`%_,.|Mի\xR" 4GʂI C{SmBqό tq?_?$JZ#j|\w+.P2n  D|u!0DN1-S[Q<Ʒoږ
