Jeffrie said,  I went to my doctor in Mobile and told him I was having trouble playing baseball. He went through some magazines and found a contraption with an  O ring. We attached it to the bat. Some modifications were made throughout the season; and years. Jeffrie became a starter on the baseball team. His dad preferred baseball because of the lack of contact.<br>Last year he batted .435 and hit two homeruns. Early in the season this year, Jeffrie was batting .370 with 13 runs scored and 12 RBI s. Clay Tew, head baseball coach at Southern Choctaw, got emotional.  Jeffrie started every game at left field all four years. I thought there was no way humanly possible. We are so blessed just to be around Jeffrie because of what he has done and how he has accepted it. No one has ever touched my life like Jeffrie. <br>Coach Boykin added another thought,  Another kid in our school broke his neck while another lost an eye. They used Jeffrie as a role model. They both worked extra hard and both returned to sports.<br> Jeffrie has inspired even community members with disabilities. And as far as our State Championship team? - we've had better talent but not another team with so much determination and dedication. <br>Jeffrie is also a good student. He is always in school, always on time to class and with his assignments and tries to turn in quality work for his assignments. He places a premium on his total educational experience. Jeffrie plans on going to college with or without sports.  You just have to have an education, he explained.<br>Jeffrie believes he has to workout like everyone else. Just being around his teammates was all Jeffrie needed.  I worked on my legs at first. When I tried to Bench it hurt but eventually my arm toughened up and now the hook I use doesn't bother me at all. As far as the Power Clean, I just had to fig the first twenty-eight days, every gram of more spots you get on the team. Also, Tricia needs to compete to help with her chance to make the U.S. team. And compete she does - Tricia is becoming an international sensation. She won the U.S. National Championship again in 2001 while setting the Park City Olympic track record at 50.74 seconds. Tricia finished second at the World Cup event in LaPlange, France last December and third in Ingls, Austria. At the 2001 World Championships in Calgary, she repeated her third place finish from the previous year. All these competitions vaulted Tricia to 4th in World Cup overall points for the 2001 season. <br>Tricia is leaving no stone unturned in her bid to make the Olympic team. And should she make it, she ll represent our nation with honor. She has gone to the Olympic Training Center in Colorado Springs and spent time with the 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 create an environment where I can be my best. <br>While in Colorado Springs, Tricia 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 hi4Х)nqy)y?+KVmR%RHZmF%~Nl`"Du;/K{X *"d0@D i&i@6/`Jߐ{f^ʴO/Az>|[qg(#fqapıfEX%<|Tpki}9YRvmQA|s6CRAr1@F=N"i%oN5I&û+m:fO߁AV'Χ5gMK *j6d76c8yCal(ݏA
