It felt great.<br>These young men maintained their positive attitude and support ethic throughout the season. Veteran players encouraged and  coached the less experienced. Offense and defense supported each other s efforts rather than criticize mistakes. Players taken out of the lineup came off the field and gave their replacements tips and encouragement instead of complaining about playing time. Even in losing efforts, they gave their best and came to practice on Monday with a positive attitude. Most important, the team was experiencing success. Success led to confidence, and confidence created more sucess. In close games, the Hornets found ways to win. This was a complete change from two years earlier.<br><br>BEYOND FOOTBALL<br><br>The Hornets program involves more than the game of football. As in many schools throughout the country, our football players are role models. Middle school and elementary students look forward to the day they will be able to suit up in Hornet orange and black on Friday nights. <br>As role models and representatives of our school and community, players are encouraged to become Elevens, in the words of BFS. Coach Harris begins eah season with this challenge to the team:  I want every player to set an example on and off the football field. Don t just be an inspiration for the younger kids in practice and in the games. Be an inspiration in class, in town, everywhere you go. Be a positive influence. You always represent the team. <br>This team concept is promoted in a variety of ways. Instead of individual players being introduced before a game, the squad is intoduced as the Hornet Football Team and all the players come running onto the field as a unit. Likewise, a team flag was created; and follwing each win, a victory ribbon is attached and the entire squad accompanies the flag as it is carried in front of the fans. <br>The players have taken on a sense of ownership in the football program. Next season, at their request, the weight room will have squad leaders. The squad leaders will be seniors. Each squad will be made up of ninth through twelfth graders. The squad leaders wise Pennies In the End Zone......................................q<br><br>Just as a sidenote, the Pro Football Hall of Fame is only about a five minute drive to nearby Canton. <br>For a football enthusiast, you are <br>in heaven.<br><br>SIDE STORY: THE NFL HALL OF FAME<br><br>Minutes from Massilon is another big-time high school football town--Canton, Ohio. City leaders in Canton won site approval for the Hall of Fame from the National Football League in April of 1961. <br>Twenty-nine months later a sparkling, modern 19,000 square-foot two building Pro Football Hall of Fame was officially opened. On that day there were 17 inducted in the Hall s Charter class.<br><br>Since then, the Hall of Fame has become so popular that it has gone through three additional renovations beginning in 1971, then 1978 and most recently in 1995. It is now a massive 82,307 square foot facility. The most outstanding new attraction is the Game Day Stadium, the turntable theater in which The 100-Yard Universe film, a premier production by NFL Films is shown.<br>I was struck by the lack of size of the older linemen that had been inducted into the Hall of Fa
