P.J. Brown, son of BFS Clinician Jim Brown, Pole Vaulted nearly 17 feet last June in a national meet. P.J. will go to the University of Arkansas. The Razorback coaches said,  We want you here because we think you can be a national champion. Even though P.J. is only 5-6 138 pounds, he was blessed with strength and speed genes. He has done the BFS program since the 4th grade and was coached on a regular basis with Earl Bell, one of the very best Pole Vault coaches in the world. <br>Brock Berlin, last year s USA Today National Football Player of the Year and our most recent BFS Athlete of the Year, led Evangel Christian Academy to another undefeated season, to be crowned national champions by Fox Sports. Brock Power Cleaned 315 pounds from the floor. Not bad for a quarterback. So obviously, Brock has good genes. His coach, Dennis Dunn, is one of our BFS Clinicians and Brock went through his first BFS Clinic when he was in the 9th grade. Brock s coaches are among the elite in coaching quarterbacks. Evangel s QB s have averaged throwing nearly 400 yards per game for 8 years! Brock graduated early from Evangel so he could make spring practice at the University of Florida. Coach Steve Spurrier has stated publically that Brock could be an important cog in the Gator offense as a true freshman quarterback. <br> Wait! you say,  Coach Shepard, didn t you forget one important ingredient? What about attitude? To me, if you want to compete at the highest level, attitude is a given. I expect you to be great. On a scale of one to ten, I expect you to be an eleven. Nik Arrhenius is an eleven in my book, but I will let you decide: Nik is a good student, an Eagle Scout, is always in class, has never been tardy, has never been offered drugs, has never even seen drugs, has never been offered alcohol, has chosen friends who never drink, has never chewed or smoked, has never missed a workout, has not had a soda for two years, eats no candy, no pastries, no potato chips, no donuts, no fries, no deserts and is always focused when he does a workout. Says Nik,  There is no music, no cable TV; it is total focus. You pick up your weights. You are in the weight room for one reason and that is to get better. <br>Nik also plays football at Mountain View as a defensive end. He made All-Region as a junior but because of a big upcoming track meet commitment in Chile (South America), he might miss some of this year s football games. Nik s father said,  I like Nik playing football now but at first I didn t. You always worry about injuries. Nik has had fun playing plus I believe football has helped him with agility and quickness. <br>Nik s football goal is to win a Region championshithe team s sport psychologist, Kirsten Peterson.  She has good insight into my performance personality, said Tricia.  We focused on where my challenges are in sport. She gave me concrete things to try in an effort to creat an environment where I can be my best. <br>While in Colorado Springs, Trcia received active release therapy (ART) to help a long-time hamstring injury. Dr. Leahy created this approach to muscle healing which strips off scar tissue and allows the muscles and tendons to move.  Essentially he digs his thumbs into my hamstrings as deep and hard as he can. Ouch! The process only takes about fifteen minutes and it is working. Tricia is more flexible than ever and Coach Snowden is able to do more and more hamstring exercises in the gym. <br> I admire Eric more than anyone I know, offered Tricia.  He has inspired me more than anyone else. He is 100% dedicated to hiF(j;2ò1tr6Apķ~n36<["B^1TMpU^3{=Ũq;:PvZ,g3J6ِg\AqȻꓦ.񩮍K) 8M 8s1Ro}ȭq798۵dJ'P?~'38&Z :HиH_mAͷk%Ub`23dA6ةd:"L14C2;pɂH9guɒ+֤3nY%$9Ubz(Km8/ MNhճcW%ȑZ`:o{1v\ *r lH Hgڭc՝#nH)!@*|<73a7[4k2}To0x,@Z.
