Everbody is working so hard. Everyone puts in extra time to get better."<br>Chad believes he has a chance to play in the NFL. "If it happens," explains Chad, "I will thank the Lord. But, I need to stay healthy and work hard. That's why my degree is so important. When football is over at whatever level, I'll be able to move on. Graduating means a lot to me and my parents.owners, doctors, coaches, scouts, trainers and administrative personnel. Kevin just shook his head,  They are thorough, very thorough. It is probably the most complete physical one cold go through.<br><br> They had 15 stations and each station had five substations. At each of those substations, they check everything from your knees to elbows to your neck to your hamstrings. You are more sore from the Combine than the actual training camp. <br><br>Sure, Kevin was disappointed at not making a postseason game. He had always been an extremely confident athlete. Well, you have two choices when you get knocked down a peg or two: lie down or raise up. Kevin didn t just complain and talk. He went to work.  Raise Up became his motto - his mission.<br><br>Kevin just blew them away at the Combine. Absolutely blew them away. He soared to 36.5 on his vertical jump and leaped 10-6 on the standing long jump. Kevin gauged that anything over ten feet is considered a great jump. However, the Bench Press is where Kevin popped a few eyeballs.<br><br>The NFL Combine tests the Bench Press by having the players do 225 pounds for a max out on reps. Even though Kevin only weighs 185 pounds, he has recorded a 405 one-rep max on the bench. He was primed and ready. Kevin did more reps than most linemen when he did an amazing 26 reps with 225 pounds.<br><br> Luckily, I was blessed with speed and strength. Also, someone was still willing to give me a chance, recalled Kevin.  When a cat s trapped in a corner, it s going to scratch and claw to force its way out or die trying. That was Kevin sre where they were District Champs and made it to the Regional Final. Also, Coach Christine Robertson was named Conference Coach of the year. <br> Our Physical Education program has made great strides, proudly states Coach Marty Martens.  We have grown from two classes of weight lifting to six. Next year we have the possibility of adding two more sections. There are really two main reason that this has happened. We now have a uniform program that everyone is following. That program is BFS. The other is the fact that all of the coaches in the system now buy into the program. They have seen the results that our basketball and football program have had and believe that BFS has had something to do with it. <br>About their athletes tremendous strength gains, Coach Scott Robertson excitedly proclaims,  New records are being broken by both our male and female athletes each testing period. We also have the weight room open after school each day for 2 hours and only the BFS system is allowed. We have excellent numbers participating including approximately thirty 8th graders who have already bought in and are getting a jump on their competition. We also have the weight room open 6 hours per day during the summer and it is supervised by a variety of coaches on a volunteer basis. <br>Allegan High School has experienced and will continue to experience some amazing results just from the one change of unifying their program. Their future looks better than it e])UAbҋ`¸VӸh0X_
