It became obvious to all that something special had happened to the mountain men of Oakhurst, but what the community did not realize was that the athletes had spent long hours preparing for those hard fought battles. The many hours of summer training had prepared them to be the best.<br> <br>Team Leaders<br><br>Six foot three 280 lb. senior Cole Popovich was an amazing leader in the weight room, having destroyed almost every lifting record in Badger history. At the age of 17, Popovich was able to parallel squat 500 lbs, bench 365, hex dead 565, and proved his explosiveness with a 320 lb. power clean! <br> The most impressive record that Cole set was his vertical leap& , said Eames, his voice teeming with emotion.  To have a 280 lb lineman who can leap 35  vertically, and has a standing broad jump of 9 5 really gives the team an almost unfair advantage. <br>That advantage is exactly what the coaching staff utilized. They placed the mountain-sized mammoth at the heart of their offense and defensive line. The division one prospect saw his love for the weight room translate into domination at the line of scrimmage.<br> The common mistake that people made, commented Popovich,  was thinking that our team had the biggest line on the field. The truth is that guys like John Garcia made the difference. <br> John Garcia, recipient of the Badger s  Iron Man award, started at offensive guard being only 5 8 and 170 lbs, proved that the BFS program can elevate a smaller or lighter player to a competitive level! John might not have been bigger than his opponents but he was faster and stronger. Lifting well over three times his body weight, Garcia could lift an amazing 585 lbs in the box squat! His improvement record is outstanding: comparing his freshman and junior year he improved in the parallel squat from 170 to 365 lbs, his power clean jumped from 115 to 215, and his bench went from 145 to 235. <br>Many seniors just like Popovich and Garcia spent endless hours of training. Not only did they achieve their goal of being the best team in history at Yosemite High School, they have sparked the fires of tradition that will be burning strong for some time. Coach Eames love of tenacious weight room practices proved to be the winning edge that made the Badgers  VALLEY CHAMPS . 㺖ZqMW/NHvb'oAdRz)UG~#oׄqji. ^WЏM~&-ә?

Perhaps the rough and rocky road they have been forced to walk is what polished them into first class, fine tuned athletes. Amy is an athlete jnPP5(ss[0
