The saying,  Practice does not make perfect, practice makes permanent, is posted in the locker room every fall. Coaches focus in on teaching the smallest details, and players focus in on learning their techniques to perfection. The amount of attention paid to detail, coupled with the ever-present focusing on the ultimate goal, made the Woodbury Royal football players develop into championship players.<br>With the foundation that championship people make up championship players, the Royals successfully acquired the necessary ingredients to become a championship team. Picked to finish fourth in their conference in 1998 by the St. Paul Pioneer Press, the Royals felt as though they wanted to earn respect across the state. However, the respect the Royals sought was not of the superficial kind that so many professional athletes rant and rave about - the Royals believed that they were the best team in the state of Minnesota and they were focused on winning the championship and earning the respect of all. <br>Woodbury opened the season with a school record seven straight wins. Coincidentally, the eighth game of the season was against conference rival Hastings High School who was also 7-0 entering the game. The game, to be played on Woodbury's home field for the St. Paul Suburban Conference Championship, was host to nearly 6,000 fans, as well as every television station and newspaper in the Twin Cities area. The Royals opened the game confidently focused on their goal of winning the schools first ever outright conference championship and claiming the number one seed as they headed into sectional play. The Royals defense held Hastings to a single first down in the first half of play, while the offense scored on three prolonged drives, to take a 21-0 lead into half time. The Royals locker room was filled with excited, confident players. On their first three possessions of the second half, the Hastings Raiders scored every time and tied the game at 21-21. The Royals had temporarily lost their focus, but managed to put together what seemed to be the game winning drive, scoring a touchdown with just under two minutes remaining. After missing the extra point, the Royals promptly squashed all of the Raiders pass attempts. However, with 7.6 seconds remaining in the game, the Royals saw their conference championship dreams dashed to pieces as a hail mary pass landed in the hands of the Hastings receiver. The extra point put the Raiders up by a single point, a margin good enough to give them the conference championship. Royal players and coaches were stunned by the loss, but what could have been the pin that popped the Royals championship balloon proved to be the enzyme to further the championship dream. <br>Some called the loss a reality check, but the Woodbury Royal players about MNU, call 1-800-800-8887 or visit www.mnu.edu.<br>With reat coaches and a university providing a fertile educational and spiritual envi j0http://office.biggerfasterstronger.com/upload2/07_SepOct_LoyalsockHigh.pdf" target=_blank>Download Article in PDF Format<BR><BR><IMG src="htt://office.biggrfasterstronger.com/uploads2/07_SepOct_18.jpg"><BR><BR>Download Article inPDF Format</A>TUVWXYZcdefghijstuvwxyz ?ׅ>Z lkRp+R qW \IUoMIfKjʹ5Zj7WSl(̫$jw477d[x֓ et5^HZ33*5$~\06UH7GWgw8HXhxIYiy*:JZjzm!1AQa"q2#BRbr3$4CS%cs5DT &6E'dtU7()󄔤euFVfvGWgw8HXhx9IYiy*:JZjz ?(2 up;FK-M`ſpƀjyn͔0>-E/( ;axvbRO9e0YlU;|C8my2QȓI:M`_GXZ!l\uҴ1hlq +ihn^ pD2"Hl+R4JCG,²܈imb^< GؤLLl9nIփտe Za,R>~)1,s]W}r@ԊT„u RLOTVj+_%Ќ?'œ9lj$,USoec%3XR=Q? c=X6AWKMJ7fnP~dq|X96TVANx^8W#a;?=J=WW.G,rjR¯MybyVC_i}l\ǒY'巨N9$E8$?3[Ѯu;xѸ62ϛ)q1 I-َ?I}+nӯ DgZeZI uJoK/p!t^}Xx1x$%i^G2`Lre1Kn<Xk&2ea6<I?ti)_KJP9h"k0;0fk *GtfC3q5?C * SѴO,G !SX7?ˌAÐtEhj[f Wtwd\gB$R :2R W&E8U Ȃ$h54=J?Z҆ځQ[d3seL2,%|["[b4eLe*QN#d) make one more putt than Dicky out of 107 putts or Davis might be 10 degrees more accurate on one out of 107 iron or wood shots. An incredibly small difference in skill, but that difference was worth five million dollars!<br> And so it is with sports and life. The difference between average and great is small. The difference between good and great is very small. When you really take charge of your destiny, you create a difference. How are you going to prepare differently this year? Howare you going to practice differently this year? How are you going to get better grades? How is your team going to do better or remain champi of a sprint. The eyes should not be focused stra
