He is a better player due to his weight training because he s become bigger, he s become faster and he s become stronger, says McCombs.  He s what I call  a student of the game. Gizzi studies football he s football smart. You tell him you want him to look for something, or you want him to play someone a certain way, and he locks in and studies the film until he makes sure he knows what s going to happen to him on every single play. <br>The fact that Gizzi listens and learns from his coaches should come as no surprise. He s been doing it his entire life. His father, Alfred Gizzi, is on the coaching staff at Baldwin Wallace College, a Division III school in Ohio.<br>Gizzi s also mentally tough. During preseason practice he got a cut on the bridge of the nose.  It s been a mess, says Gizzi.  It was just a little cut that started the second week of August, the first day of hitting, and from then on it was kind of dormant for a while, then it exploded and it s been bleeding all over me during the game. Right now there are 20 internal and external stitches; my total is getting close to 80. <br>Jim Conboy has been the head athletic trainer of the Academy since 1955, and he explained why the cut has been such a problem.  It s hard to stop these cuts when you get them under the helmet, says Conboy.  The trouble is you can t put anything over the cut without affecting the vision we ve tried many things, and we re still trying. Of course, if he didn t play against CSU we could have taken the stitches out, but I d hate to have been the guy who would have to tell Gizzi he couldn t play! <br>In his 42 years with the team Conboy has seen many great football players, and he gives Gizzi the highest praise.  He s one of the best ever, and fits the mold of all the good ones we ve had. McCombs agrees,  N:"8dZrKZwҧDqk9cio$#:Ny9@H'Rs}C1cTǥoLpI\R?wRCti-hΊb?> #WH2_FI9 fcB0{g4GJ“Cy 'K۟*g8j$2' r[Y.ᜉvj|>w.s lrP])ssH Jm^$NyAΙ'S5 ?J@ ,P*@0L2x@M*.Jʠ@9 ={P ^kK 38<yА`N {0# r;5.fb"2{ 0wʀ6w0Lt'hGT9=8\/+L}NFW=DkjWc)x oYk*.GM7h[x RK'2D/vS9xha$dg𦮮Ƞ͓@yݱ9~a{uLJZ/-I:]Bd @O$9}wc4mݫ95@aȆS!=~_,ڧAWbx'9~R6v _328OZ'$<hr/cR$ g8*qN&\qP3B;ԊNqT~7H d`a4@Bzr:dqPJApj9Q#c9 ~4a@錌ESPKLv2?( %드ޜeϘA_*@ѳ#nY})#pc%d86A@Nn 8ݜubY#l;&f%Hژ6*0d`21PF0Y>eFaOUyJ· wp1B !az _6Rۈ jfE3y&Œ2FnqP0vcB:\Y,tf9`pj5˒J# r? aLI"2Jd&OʤuB5BNG:bInOҞѮ7#syiJs= ]ssL-Lʀ#d[d q$rH>RgztѪ!v}7hh po†E 0LJ6>B)9:7 Wl:n:rTbq;rN?ZFº+pz2!n=_JG dE?HyϽ3R4HX@|z{"PQ>AW`@'*~}x'#chұz?Z*”Q? <br>LJ: Our athletic director is Lee Moon, and e's really given us a lot of support.
