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 tis 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 this everyday. One of those rules is to  refuse to associate with anyone, anyplace or anything that will createmediocrity or negativity. Conrad refuses to associate in a drug, alcohol or tobacco situation. <br>Conrad always gives out his cell phone number and offers to drive others home. He warns,  Don t drive with alcohol in you. When you keep saying  no to alchol people start respecting you and eventually they just stop asking. There is always other things to do like going to the movies, etc. I also believe part of leadership is being a good role model because tiny eyes are always watching. <br> It s nice t have people around you who believe in you, asserted Conrad.  I am lucky to have such wonderful parents, famoel played so well for the school that the partial scholarship turned into a full scholarship and he earned a college degree. Helpig Joel fulfill his dreams was one of my most gratifying accomplishments, but there have also been countless others.<BR><BR>Give us an idea of the facilities you have at your school.<BR>Our weight room is about 3,000 square feet and it's completely carpeted. As for equipment, you could say we have three of everything: thre benches, three squat racks, three neck machine, three power clean platforms, three glute-hams, three deadlift platforms, three incline bences, three lat machines and three calf machines. We also have BFS dt drill pads, dip stands, wo BFS Lethal Weapons, dumbbells progressing from three to 75 pounds, 18 barbells, and 10,000 pounds of weights. <BR><BR>How does your school implement the BFS program in its curriculum?<BR>We have weightlifting classes throughout the day, and we use the Beat the Computer program and the logbooks. The program works great for the 500-plus students I work with each year and it's enabled all our sports tobe very competitive on a onsistent level.<BR><BR>The BFS weight training system-what sets it ap
