The community of approximately 650 people yields a high school population of about 92 students. Coaches that cannot be found within the teaching staff are recruited from other areas. The boys basketball staff is made up of the school s custodian and a local rancher, while the school superintendent manages the cross-country team. Finding coaches for most sports can be difficult enough with a limited school budget, so Class C schools in Montana rarely are able to hire the strength and weight training specialists that bigger schools may have.<br> You have to get all the coaches and players and community to buy into it. Maybe then the other coaches will see how you can get results, commented Hofstad on the challenges of operating a new program in a small district.<br>When one begins to think that the challenges have been overcome, they can return very quickly. As the new season approaches, Valier must begin to work on accomplishing a new goal - getting back to the State C Tournament. That could be harder than it sounds, as Valier will once again lose two starters, only this time the loss may be even more detrimental to the squad.<br>Along with Brophy, the team s most-valuable-player last season, the Lady Panthers said goodbye to their three-year starting setter Hayley Powers. Their one-two combination was a wonderful asset to the team, and Hofstad will have the complicated task of working to adequately replace them by making her team more defensively minded.  This team has a goal to make it back to the state tournament, says the coach,  To do that, we will have to be a lot quicker, and be a scrappier team instead of a power team. BFS dot drill helps with that. <br>No matter what the future holds for this team, they have experienced the sweet success that comes with working to be better, faster, and stronger. Nothing can overshadow the accomplishments last season s team made; those will live forever. Instead it s the Valier Volleyball Team s mission to justify those achievements by using their determination to work even harder next season.mature late, and some of these kids are still growing, putting on size and making strength gains like you wouldn t believe. <br><br>The Dog Soldiers<br><br> In the middle of last summer, assistant coach Joe Forchtner was discussing strategy with his colleagues, putting the finishing touches on the playbook.  We began to think about traditions, like the Nebraska Black Shirts, says Coach Forchtner,  and we realized we needed one as a new rallying point for our defense. <br> Out of the caucus came the Dog Soldiers.  With Head Coach Snelding in his first year at the helm, tradition and respect to the school and the Native American was his first priority, recalls Coach Schultz.<br>  Tse-tschese-staeste is what the Cheyenne people call themselves. The word Cheyenne was believed to come from the French word chien for dog. The French traders called these people this because of the famous Dog Soldiers of the Cheyenne nation. The Dog Soldiers were the elite military organization of the tribe. They were the last line of defense for the people, explains Schu
